Health of nations

About this book

"Although policy makers agree that America's costly, fragmented health care system is inadequate, they have not yet reached consensus on how it should be reformed." "Comparing the health care systems of six industrialized nations - the United States, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Japan, and the United Kingdom - the author assesses the strengths and weaknesses of each system, discusses the latest in health care policy research, and suggests how the lessons learned by other nations might be applied in the United States to produce lasting health care reform."--Jacket.
