''Well written, with a very useful bibliographical essay and index, this book can be recommended for medical and general readers alike.''--Guenter B. Risse, M.D., Ph.D., Journal of the American Medical Association.''The best brief history of health care in America since Richard H. Shryock's classic survey appeared over thirty years ago.''--Ronald L. Numbers, University of Wisconsin-Madison.

""To cover the history of medicine in America from the earliest European settlements to the present day in 159 pages seems a risky enough undertaking, yet James Cassedy here carries it off admirably... It is clearly written; its generalizations are firmly stated; and its scope is broad.""
