I heard the author interviewed on the radio and it sounded interesting. It is a very detailed look at the beginning of the industrialization of food in the US, when we moved to large scale food processing and distribution. All types of food, candy, medicines, and beverages were modified, faked, disguised or adulterated with additives, preservatives, fillers, colorants, discolorants, watered down, and it was all legal, because there were no food laws.If formaldehyde in your milk or meat sounds wholesome, this era is for you. A short list of the ingredients that were routinely added to food, beverages, candy, and medicine; formaldehyde, coal tar (or aniline) dyes, copper sulfate, zinc, salicylic acid, methyl alcohol, borax, sulfuric acid, diethylene glycol, sodium sulfite, alum, coconut and almond and other nut shells, sawdust, morphine, heroin, cocaine, arsenic, mercury, lead, copper....Harvey Wiley led what was the forerunner of the Food and Drug Administration and battled all sorts of obstacles, but made slow, steady progress. He used healthy human volunteers to test some of the additives, they were known as the ‘Poison Squad’.His foes and a few friends were both big and little food processors, politicians on the take, trade associations protecting their turf, beareaucrats, The Women’s Christian Temperance Union, Upton Sinclair, Good Housekeeping magazine, throw in Teddy Roosevelt and the Roughriders, it was a wild time back in those days.At the end of 29 years with the US Department of Agriculture, Wiley had established a blueprint for food testing and more importantly convinced a significant number of people that we should be testing and protecting our food from all sorts of adulterations.Again, if time travel ever becomes feasible, and you travel back to the early 1900s, you may want to take your lunch with you.
are extremely important. So is enforcing them. I'm amazed anyone survived on the tainted and poisoned food. I'm also disappointed that it took our government decades to enact regulations that saved peoples lives and health. And it absolutely terrifies me what is currently going on in Washington. The loss of regulations (aka protections) in food and our environment are inconceivable to me, but yet, that's the government that was elected.
As a former health inspector at the local level it is nice to see a book written about a public servant who championed the public health against the seemingly insurmountable profit driven food and drug industry.
To be honest I had never heard of the Poison Squad nor Dr. Wiley. Now I know about the birth of the FDA. You'll also begin to realize that current efforts to get rid of government regulations (yes, the Trump administration) of food, environment, fuel consumption, what have you, do not benefit we the consumers.This is a fascinating look back at how one man bulldozed his way to help us all.
With the rash of bad food safety news and attempts at deregulation, @DeborahBlum’s book, The Poison Squad, couldn’t have been better timed. Reading this will make you an ardent advocate for stronger regulation, not relaxing it. Can you imaging a review board (IRB) now allowing Wiley’s testing of adulterants on healthy volunteers?I’ve regularly written about food safety from the infectious disease or outbreak perspective. This is the other side of the coin, with fraudulent and dangerous food additives.Drug development for safety and efficacy was the focus of much of my professional career. Counterfeit medicines also have a huge overlap with Infectious Diseases, as illustrated by the growth of artemisinin-resistant malaria.Blum’s thoroughly documented, engaging—and at times nauseating—read, is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about health and safety-- in particular, of children. It is graphic, of necessity.The Poison Squad is a call to arms for more safety and protection for whistle-blowers, not a laissez-faire government.Well-deserved acclamation and placement on “Best Science Books†lists.
The theme is very interesting but the author fails to focus on the most important facts. The writing is not concise - e.g.: he goes on and on about the canned meat sent to US soldiers in the war against Spain in Cuba without revealing anything interesting. There is no climax. He mentions products but do not explain what they are. There are long lists with contributors right at the beginning of the book. He mentions some food additives and preservatives that we not necessarily know but he does not explain possible health hazards caused by these. I think that the main problem with the book is the fact that the author is writing about a scientific topic without having the proper basic scientific knowledge to understand what should be the focus of his text. Evidence of this lack of knowledge can be seen on his explanation about glucose, located at about 6% of the reading for those using an e-reader.
written by the first US forensic examiner who made the lab at Bellevue Hospital on Long Island, I learned a lot from this book. Very well done and ties into the historic background, such as all the folks coming in crazy or dying from alcohol which had been poisoned by the US Treasury during prohibition. A good read and I recommend this book.
Reminiscent of today’s global warming issue. Industry refused t admit possible harm and government backed them. Science won the battle, but it took many decades and too many deaths from chemicals in foods, like borax and formaldehyde.
