Looking For A Great Book On The Drug Industry?

Hey all, I'm looking for a good book on the Drug industry. Specifically something that feels like a pleasure read rather then a text book. ....Something that goes over the development of drugs and touches all the issues surrounding them, including the financial and approval aspects of the industry. Anyone have any recommendations ?

Isn't this totally off toppic? Maybe there is a book that focuses on the role of bioinformatics in the pharmaceutical industry, to get the question back on track.

Two I can think of are: (1) The Billion Dollar Molecule, by Barry Werth. Talked about a lot among people in the industry. (2) Prescription for Success, the autobiography of Marion Kaufffman, by Anne Morgan. Not quite as relevant, but good for some long term perspective and business philosophy.
