Reviews

The book's important contributions are unscored by Trotter's rich prose and her exceptional ability to weave intricate stories into a compelling, nuanced portrait of 21st-century health care. She brings her research subjects to life with steady-handed critique, avoiding both unnecessarily harsh criticism and uncritical adulation.
