潘朵拉處方
作者:詹姆斯.薛利丹
出版社:三采文化
定價:320元
這是一本很引人入勝、欲罷不能的懸疑小說。除了情節看頭十足,這本小說藉著懸疑情節的鋪陳,揭露出來資本主義這套政治經濟社會體系的幽暗面,更讓人驚悚與震慄。
過去二十年世界經濟遭逢巨大的變動,無論讀者個人的意識型態為何,或對「全球化」一詞的定義及理解為何,大概都不得不承認跨國大企業在其中的支配地位與影響力。
製藥這個產業,在全球政治經濟的舞台上一直佔有顯著位置,動輒百億、千億計的市場,讓國際大藥廠為維護既得利益或潛在利益,而使出激烈的攻防保衛戰。
其中有多少「不能說的秘密」攸關著生民百姓的死生與苦痛?做為局外人的我們無緣親窺,所幸這幾年來已陸續有人開始挑戰這龐大的利益集團,揭開其中的一些內幕與迷思。
如德國醫藥記者Jorg Blech的力作:「發明疾病的人」及「無效的醫療」、美國一位醫師Marcia Angell的「藥廠黑幕」、以及出生美國,長期居住澳洲的暢銷作家Jeffery Robinson 的「一顆價值十億的藥丸:人命與金錢的交易」。
這些著作詳細地剖析現代醫藥產業如何運用科學權威,與操弄實證研究,製造出令人憂心的「疾病」名稱與源源不絕的醫藥需求,精彩地揭露出醫藥科學所建構出來的疾病迷障與醫療陷阱。
儘管這本小說的懸疑情節有若干虛構性,但不容否認的是,「潘朵拉處方」再度精彩地將大藥廠為確保一己私利不擇手段的惡劣勾當,活靈活現的展現出來。
這些現象已經存在了許久,也必將繼續存在,只要醫藥產業選擇走營利的路,服膺資本邏輯,那麼這些醫藥黑幕醜聞仍將繼續上演,只不過戲碼不同而已。
台灣是不是存在類似的黑幕?可能有讀者很感興趣會問,但這個問題的探究與否,其實已非重點,因為這些醫藥界所爆發出來的醜聞,老實說是病徵,唯有找到病灶,才能一勞永逸地讓這些令人扼腕憤怒的事情不再出現。
容我大膽地說,病灶就在醫藥產業的營利化與商品化,當利潤率成為念茲在茲的目標時,我們如何期望「病人中心」的醫療核心價值能有生存的空間呢?

Pandora's box 知多少
「…….一言以蔽之,反右運動打開了毛澤東以「哲學家皇帝」統治全中國的「潘朵拉的盒子」(Pandora's Box)。從此,直到老毛病死,中國大陸實際上就是一座「毛記煉獄」」。(林博文<讀章詒和《往事並不如煙》---煙霧繚繞中的真人實事>中國時報2004.10.30)

open a Pandora's box
to do something that causes a lot of new problems that you did not expect
In old Greek stories, Zeus (= the king of the gods) gave Pandora a box that he told her not to open, but she did open it and all the troubles in the world escaped from it. [often + of] 【希臘神話】 潘朵拉 ( Zeus 為懲罰 Prometheus, 命火神用黏土製成的人間第一個女人 )
Sadly, his reforms opened a Pandora's box of domestic problems.
(from Cambridge International Dictionary of Idioms)

我們一般人究竟對這西方典故「潘朵拉的盒子」知道多少呢?
其實,如果你讀過社會—教育學名著Deschooling Society(《非學校化社會》),就知道末章採用它,不過該章強調的是:「潘朵拉的盒子」同時還釋放出來「希望」。

「潘朵拉的盒子」 之「盒子」等等,都可能是「誤譯」,原先為「桶子」。
據我所知,「潘朵拉的盒子」之故事曲折無比,關於它的最詳盡學術考証,應參考:ERWIN PANOFSKY (1892-1968)夫婦合著的好書:
Pandora's Box: The Changing Aspects of a Mythical Symbol By DORA and ERWIN PANOFSKY, Princeton University Press , 1956/1962
(Bollingen Series, Vol 52)

2004/10/31知道此書已有日文翻譯版本,多少有點感慨:如果10年前我一口氣將它翻譯出版,或許是美事。
記下這則「有志待酬」的故事。
我們查Amazon此書的說明(此書追究從羅馬至當今,「潘朵拉的盒子」在西方文藝之史蹟),知道此「潘朵拉的盒子」歷經著名文人Calderon, Voltaire, 和 Goethe的作品,西方人多少曉得這位「古希臘之夏娃」的故事。
(Editorial Reviews/Book Description
Pandora was the "pagan Eve," and she is one of the rare mythological figures to have retained vitality up to our day. Glorified by Calderon, Voltaire, and Goethe, she is familiar to all of us, and "Pandora's box" is a household word. In this classic study Dora and Erwin Panofsky trace the history of Pandora and of Pandora's box in European literature and art from Roman times to the present.
