When science lets people fulfil their greatest desires, where is the line drawn? In the tradition of And The Band Played On, award-winning journalist Shaun Assael looks at America's complicated love affair with steroids and how it has grown into a worldwide drug addiction. Steroid Nation presents a chilling portrait of a nation enamoured with artifically pumped success. Chronicling steroid use far beyond the headlines, it begins with the bodybuilders of Venice Beach in the 1970s and continues through to the scandals of today.
