The Brave New World of Health Care
by Richard D. Lamm
Speaker's Corner Books is a provocative new series designed to stimulate, educate, and foster discussion on significant public policy topics.
Written by experts in a variety of fields, these brief and engaging books should be read by anyone interested in the trends and issues that shape our society.
Long target of policymakers and reformers, the current American healthcare system is, in the words of Richard D. Lamm, "unsustainable, unaffordable, and inequitable, and needs to be substantially amended and revised."
In this informed and erudite look at the current state of the American healthcare system, Lamm exposes the problems existing not only in policy and professional circles, but also in public attitudes and expectations.
In so doing, Lamm provides a framework for reform, seeking to rebuild the "house of healthcare" that has into disrepair.
