Sorry if this is a double post. I did find several posts about his book on the forum but thought I would post this, as I found it interesting.

this article is excellent. i highly recommend it to everyone -- i sent to all my friends and family because it is so important not just for us, as future doctors, to understand, but for everyone we care about, who accesses health care, to understand as well.

Awesome speech. Thank you for posting it. I've been looking for his book at my local libraries, but I have yet to have any luck finding it. I'm going to just buy it from Amazon.
