  "I found the book to be quite funny in parts although the plot becomes a bit improbable especially toward the end." by swells (see profile) 10/29/05

 
  "A young man enrolls in a clinical drug trial ro earn money." by booker1 (see profile) 11/09/05

Some genuine comic moments are an added treat to the book. However, most people enroll in a clinical trial for other reasons than to raise added cash income. They enroll in clinical trials because they come from poor financial situations and/or they have tried so many other drugs that have failed so this is a court of last resort.

This book could have the potential to spur readers on to find out how clinical trials really work and the pitfalls/shortfalls associated with participation in these studies.
