About this listen

In this revealing analysis, Dr. Brodie Ramin tells the story of the opioid crisis, showing us the disease and cure from his perspective as an addiction doctor working on the front lines. We meet his patients, hear from other addiction experts, and learn about the science and medicine of opioid addiction and its treatments. He shows us how addiction can be prevented, how knowledge can reduce stigma, and how epidemics can be beaten.

Dr. Ramin brings the hopeful message that just as patients and health-care workers rallied together to fight HIV one generation ago, a coalition of patients, advocates, scientists, doctors, and nurses is once again finding solutions and making plans to stem the overdose deaths, block the spread of fentanyl, and end the epidemic.

good book

Started out interesting but got slow towards the end. kind of preaching at the end without solid action to take.

Very Informative

Dr. Ramin's books is quite informative, both in the history of opioid use as well as the challenges that users face when it comes to getting help. it's hard for someone who is not a user to fully understand how the addiction works (I question whether medical doctors really understand it as well). Dr. Ramin goes to great lengths to try to explain it in layman's terms so that the average reader/listener can enter this world and understand what both users and providers go through. My only criticism of the book is that it tends to ignore spiritual strongholds as well as personal responsibility when it comes to addiction. While both of those topics may difficult to comment on, it's something worth mentioning in future versions of the book.

A Real Eye Opener with A Real Solution

A deep look into the lives of those who are addicted and how we can help them heal. I’m glad I listened to this book.
