AID Series, 1979-80
Scope and Contents
This subseries includes drafts of several books by Lee and the research files used to create the books. The research files consist primarily of reprints, clippings and papers of others used as background. Some folders also include correspondence, notes or reports sent to Lee. Manuscripts included are Pills and the Public Purse, Primary Care in a Specialized World, Drugs and the Elderly, and Deliberations and Compromise. Also included in this subseries are files concerning the IHPS's Third World Drug Study. This study and other research files served as background material for Lee's book Prescriptions for Death: The Drugging of the Third World, but there is no draft manuscript of this book in this collection. The file on the Pharmaceutical Export Reform Act, includes a discussion of Genentech's legislative initiative "to change existing statutory prohibitions against the export of unproved new drugs." Other major topics include the Cleveland Project of the Project on Human Sexual Development and a 1978 Briefing book on the National Institute of Health.
