    Good read, very interest events
  

*by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 15, 2023*

I had to read this book for Food Law in law school. It was very interesting and somewhat heartbreaking what happened. I would recommend this to anyone regardless if they are studying law.

    Truly Healing. I wish I had this book 20 years ago.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 2, 2014*

21 years ago my 4 year old son, 6 year old daughter and I were all affected by the E-Coli outbreak in Washington. While my son and I recovered after several days of extreme illness my 6 year old daughter did not. She continued to progressively get worse. We were some of the early cases so it hadn't hit the news yet. When my daughter was admitted to the hospital the doctors told us she should have been at the very least comatose if not dead. How does a parent react to that? We had been taking her to the doctors for 2 weeks. While they told us they would do everything they could to save her we knew they were preparing us for her to die. No one expected her to live. She suffered acute kidney failure, HUS and later a stroke. The only chance they had of saving her was to do dialysis twice in the first 24 hours. It was dangerous but our only option at that time.We spent our time at Children's Hospital in the room across the hall from Brianne Kiner (whose story is told in the book). It was a difficult time for all of us.While Jeff's book brought back a flood of memories from that time it also brought about a healing that I hadn't realized I needed. I was fascinated as I read his book and learned about the "other side" of the story. His book was very personal to me. I recognized the names and people in the book as we had also connected with so many of them.I'm grateful to Jeff for taking the time to research this event and tell the story. For those of us who lived through the event and were personally affected by it, this book provides a new level of healing for us.My daughter did survive. The doctors could not explain her recovery. By all medical standards she should have died. Her healing was truly a miracle.My thanks go out to Jeff for helping to heal my heart in new ways.

    Good Storytelling - Engrossing and Informative - Important Subject
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 4, 2016*

Poisoned is the story of the Jack In The Box E coli outbreak and the major players in that story.  It is well written and holds your interest through the tragedies and triumphs that came out of this event.  It follows how the corporation changed how they handled food, how the attorney who protected the rights of the victims became an advocate for food safety, and how this event changed how the public is protected against food poisoning.  It includes the important information about the disease and the law, yet does an excellent job of making that information easy to understand by a layperson.  If you know more about the science and law, it is written in a way that does not bore you.  All in all, a book that can inform people about how our food supply works, and sometimes does not work, and the importance of food safety.
