Very Pleased with my Recent Purchase

I purchased The Care f Strangers for a book review that I am doing for my honors History class. I am very pleased with the codition of the book and the timely fashion that I received it.

A very important book

As more and more focus is placed on the need for change in the U.S. health system, it is vital to understand the historical roots of health care in America. Rosenberg provides us with an exceptionally thoughtful history of our hospital system. As one reads his book some twenty years after its publication, one realizes how prescient he was, and how relevant his book remains. The book is a very important one, and should be read by anyone considering health care reform in the U.S. I might add, finally, that it is very enjoyable to read.
