"Deeply researched and smartly written, No More Tears reveals the disturbing story behind one of America's most trusted brands. Gardiner Harris has done a great service, giving us a page-turning drama that raises life-or-death questions about the world's largest healthcare conglomerate."--Jonathan Eig, Pulitzer Prize winning author of King: A Life

"Leave it to Gardiner Harris, the premier pharma reporter of his generation, to take on the industry's leviathan, laying bare the ruthless soul of 'America's favorite company.' Harris's tour of the sausage factory is one that doctors, nurses, and their patients should all take, to see for themselves how the business of medicine really works."--Benedict Carey, award-winning New York Times science correspondent and author of How We Learn

"A masterpiece of muckraking . . . This hard-hitting exposé from journalist Harris documents scandals and malfeasance by the pharmaceutical conglomerate Johnson & Johnson. . . . Harris supports his takedown with a mountain of evidence and conveys his findings in scorching prose."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Harris conducts consummate investigative journalism in this gangbuster exposé of the Johnson & Johnson corporation. . . . He takes readers on a dark and devastating ride through a corporate pattern of greed and malfeasance that becomes more disturbing with each revelatory chapter. . . . Comparisons to Patrick Radden Keefe's Empire of Pain (2021) are obvious, although Harris' work is all the more stunning as Johnson & Johnson has held an enviable and unmatched degree of trust in America for decades. It is very nearly impossible to believe that this company could be capable of so many layers of deceit and dishonesty, yet that is exactly what Harris lays bare in this masterfully researched title with a narrative akin to a thriller in its intensity. . . . An absolutely unforgettable must-read."--Booklist, starred review
Gardiner Harris previously served as the public health and pharmaceutical reporter for The New York Times and is now a freelance investigative journalist. He also served as a White House, South Asia, and international diplomacy reporter for the Times. Before that, he was a reporter for The Wall Street Journal, covering the pharmaceutical industry. His investigations there led to what was then the largest fine in the history of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Previously, he was the Appalachian reporter for The Courier-Journal of Louisville, Kentucky. He won the Worth Bingham Prize for investigative journalism and the George Polk Award for environmental reporting after revealing that coal companies deliberately and illegally exposed miners to toxic levels of coal dust. Harris's novel, Hazard, draws on his experience investigating these conditions. He has also been a Pulitzer Prize finalist with a team of others at the Times. He lives in San Diego, California.
