5.0 out of 5 stars Great Intro to Law of Healthcare Administration, August 5, 2009

HG Consumer (New York, USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Law of Healthcare Administration (Hardcover)

A well-organized, well-written textbook, with the right mix of discussion, analysis, and excerpts from case law. Style is very matter of fact; good handling of technical legal issues to make them accessible to lay (or at least non-attorney) readers. Used it to teach law course at a public health school, and students seemed to feel the book was very good.

4.0 out of 5 stars A definite upgrade from the old version, September 16, 2005

M. S. Mills (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Law of Healthcare Administration (Hardcover)

I'm using this text for a graduate level course, and it is a terrific resource. Our professor is one of the top health care lawyers in the state, and he is of the opinion that this text is leaps and bounds improved over the last version. I recommend it.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Law of Healthcare Administration (Hardcover)

this book was not printed correctly. Part of chapter 9 is chapter 8(from another book), and so there are pages missing from chapter 9. Would like to return for refund, please.

I don't usually rate text books, but I have to say I really am enjoying this one. First, the print is dark enough and not so tiny that one gets tired reading it. Read more
