Book Reviews of Bad Blood: The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, Revised Edition
Book Review: fascinating
Summary: 4 Stars
this is a truly fascinating read, and i recommend it to anyone curious. i read this at the suggestion of my psychology professor, and am still surprised by my prior ignorance to the study. bad blood is well-written and amazingly well-researched. bad blood is so intriguing that it reads like a novel, although it is actually a critique and record of a study that almost single-handedly brought about the current rules of ethics for human experimentation.
