Description
Blood on Their Hands is an inspiring, firsthand account of the legal battles fought on behalf of hemophiliacs who were unwittingly infected with tainted blood. As a part of the team in the back of the key class action litigation filed by the infected, young New Jersey lawyer Eric Weinberg was once faced with a daunting task: to prove the negligence of a powerful, well-connected global industry worth billions. Weinberg and journalist Donna Shaw tell the dramatic story of how idealistic attorneys and their heroic, mortally-in poor health clients fought to reach justice and prevent further infections. A stunning exposé of one of the crucial American medical system’s most shameful debacles, Blood on Their Hands is a rousing reminder that, through perseverance, the sufferers of corporate greed can from time to time achieve great victory.
