Over the next 10-20 years healthcare is headed for its own meltdown: an inability to fund the growth in demand and the appearance of costly new medical technology. This book offers a penetrating analysis of the underlying problems, and offers some simple, but far-reaching solutions to bring supply and demand back into balance.
