520    Neoliberals often point to improvements in public health 
       and nutrition as examples of globalisation's success, but 
       this book argues that the corporate food and medicine 
       industries are destroying environments and ruining living 
       conditions across the world. Scientist Stan Cox expertly 
       draws out the strong link between Western big business and
       environmental destruction. This is a shocking account of 
       the huge damage that drug manufacturers and large food 
       corporations are inflicting on the health of people and 
       crops worldwide.Companies discussed include Wal-Mart, 
       GlaxoSmithKline, Tyson Foods and Monsanto. On issues 
       ranging from the poisoning of water supplies in South Asia
       to natural gas depletion and how it threatens global food 
       supplies, Cox shows how the demand for profits is always 
       put above the public interest. While individual efforts to
       "shop for a better world" and conserve energy are laudable,
       Cox explains that they need to be accompanied by an 
       economic system that is grounded in ecological 
       sustainability if we are to find a cure for our Sick 
       Planet.
