The French-language edition of my book, The Body Hunters, has been awarded the 2008 Prescrire prize for books on medicine and pharmaceuticals! Every year, the nonprofit journal Prescrire awards a handful of books among the many it reviews for the prize. My understanding is that The Body Hunters was one among five chosen from around 300 titles. Merci!

Also, the German newspaper Der Spiegel ran a nice commentary about the German-language edition of The Body Hunters. They’re recommending the book on their website. Check it out here.
