Introducing our new Books Beyond Borders Series!

We’re excited to launch our Books Beyond Borders series at International House with this first event this month! Local journalist and author Philip Eil, who recently published his acclaimed debut book Prescription for Pain: How A Once Promising Doctor Became the “Pill Mill Killer”, will be in conversation with local community activist and public health researcher, Jackie Goldman. They will chat about his book, the overdose epidemic in the United States, and how it impacts our Ocean State, with an emphasis on local efforts for prevention and harm reduction.
