Excellent resource

If you are interested in the political labyrinth that is medicine and health care in the US, this is a great book. The essays are all fully accessible to non-academics (meaning it isn't written to impress other academics, but to actually provide information for real people) and are interesting in and of themselves. As a body of work, it provides some real insights into the politics of the healing arts. A must-have for any CAM or integrative med practitioner.
