Notes

Description
Collecting anecdotes from interviews with health-care providers across the U.S., this book is a shocking firsthand account of the current U.S. health-care industry crisis--a crisis distinguished by its astronomical costs and limited quality care--that affects virtually every person in the country. The stories reveal the greed, egotism, malpractice, sex, power and suffering, but also include remarkable portraits of hope, miracles, and a deep desire for change. The authors examine what has led to it, who contributes to it, and what it will take to resolve it.
