Cook, Robin Acceptable Risk
New York, New York G. P. Putnam's Sons 1994 0399139710 / 9780399139710 Hard Cover Very Good Very Good
"Prozac-like drugs are being prescribed not only for their original purposes but increasingly to alter individual personalities to currently valued norms. With dead-on accuracy and the prescience of tomorrow's headlines, Robin Cook explores the perilous intersection where fame and unfathomable lucre waylay and seduce the very best and brightest of those sworn to do no harm. When neuroscientist Edward Armstrong begins dating Kimberly Stewart, a descendant of a woman who was hanged as a witch at the time of the Salem witch trials, he takes advantage of the opportunity to delve into a pet theory: that the "devil" in Salem in 1692 had been a hallucinogenic drug inadvertently consumed with mold-tainted grain. In an attempt to prove his theory, Edward grows the mold he believes responsible from samples taken from the Stewart estate. In a brilliant designer-drug transformation, the poison becomes Ultra, the next generation of antidepressants with truly startling thereapeutic capabilities."

Cook, Robin Chromosome 6
New York, New York Berkley Books 1998 0425161242 / 9780425161241 Paperback Very Good
"When notorious underworld figure Carlo Franconi is gunned down, his mafioso competitors become prime suspects. Suspicions are fueled when Franconi's body disappears from the city morgue before it can be autopsied--much to the embarrassment of the chief medical examiner and the mayor, but to the amusement of the morgue's resident cynic, forensic pathologist Dr. Jack Stapleton. A few days later, when the mutilated, unidentifiable body of a "floater" arrives on the autopsy table, Jack is troubled by the case. While unidentified bodies routinely make their way to the medical examiner's office, what piques Jack's curiosity is not so much this body's missing head, hands, and feet, but its missing liver. Aided by his colleague Dr. Laurie Montgomery, Jack identifies the corpse as the missing Franconi, but this positive identification in no way solves the mystery. Who killed Carlo Franconi? And was the triggerman responsible for the theft of Franconi's body and its eventual mutilation? Jack and Laurie's search for the truth leads them to the steamy jungles of equatorial Africa, where they discover a sinister cabal whose stock-in-trade involves surgical procedures a step beyond the lastest in current technology and a Promethean leap beyond accepted medical ethics." Light wear to cover. Yellowing to page edges.

They never wake up again. Some traceless error in anesthesia has caused irreversible brain death, leaving each of them in a hopeless coma. Something is very wrong here.

Cook, Robin Mindbend
New York, New York Signet 1986 0451141083 / 9780451141088 Paperback Good
"When young dancer Jennifer Schonberg becomes pregnant by accident, her feelings are mixed--but her husband, Adam, is far more ambivalent. For Adam, a third-year medical student already in financial straits, the loss of Jennifer's income and the cost of the coming child mean he must drop out of medical school--on the eve of becoming a a doctor. Against the advice of his teachers, his colleagues, and his wife most of all, Adam takes a job as a salesman for the vastly powerful drug company Arolen Pharmaceuticals, whose influence is known to penetrate deep into the physicians' world. But just how awesome Arolen's control is over the medical profession Adam is yet to discover. It will become all too clear in a series of increasingly terrifying revelations: corruption old as greed itself; bizarre brutality searing as a futuristic vision of hell; the preservation of life turned to a deadly purpose. And awaiting him at the end of his violent odyssey is a confrontaitoin grave beyond imagining, in which the survival of Jennifer's unborn child hangs in the balance as Adam fights to save his family--and the soul of medicine--from the overwhelming evil that is Mindbend." Wear to cover. Pages yellowed. Bookstore stamp on 1st page.
