The book is quite informative, gave you some idea about the "evolution" of American Health Care system, stories from all sides. However, the author probably has written the book in a very emotional state, I found the book rather disorganized and sometimes miss the main point of the chapters.

The newly updated secondly edition of The Buck Stops Nowhere: Why America's Health Care Is All Dollars And No Sense by skilled and experienced analyst Kathleen O'Connor is a sharply insightful and critically important wake-up call identifying the manifold flaws in America's health care industry, and the problems that beset the struggle for affordable, high-quality health care. Individual chapters knowledgeably cover the real core mechanics of why some people get insurance and other people don't; the greed that interferes with efforts for quality coverage; the rapid changes besetting the industry that must be addressed quickly in view of the looming Baby Boom Generation's advancement into Senior Citizenry, and so much more. An excellent overview of a compelling modern-day issue that directly affects all Americans, The Buck Stops Nowhere should be required reading for any citizen and all politicians having to grapple with our present and rapidly worsening national health care crisis.
