This book does an excellent job of explaining exactly how the incentives of our current insurance company/HMO led system are not benefiting you, the patient. Not only does this problem get discussed, which never happens in any sort of mainstream content, but solutions are proposed so that you as the patient can get the care you need, not the rationed care that is quickly becoming the status quo.

In general, Dr. LeMaitre writes this book with a distinct frankness and cuts through the crap that we're all told to believe. I applaud any person who is willing to come out and share the deficiencies of their industry. Clearly this is a work that encountered some resistance from the powers that be, which is a clear sign of the quality of the content.

Because health is such a central part of everyone's life, this is a must-read for anyone and everyone.
