Book Synopsis The Cholesterol Controversy by : Gilbert R. Thompson
Book excerpt: The Cholesterol Controversy recounts the long-running debate surrounding the relationship between cholesterol and coronary heart disease. Focusing primarily on events in the UK and the personalities involved, the story is unraveled here, from the origins of the controversy in the 1950s, to the discovery, development and trials of statins in the 1970s, 80s and 90s, culminating with recent concerns over the efficacy of ezetimibe and safety of torcetrapib.
