Synopsis

Nationally-known social critic Martin L. Gross skewers the medical prfession with the same sharp pen he used on the federal government in the bestselling The Government Racket, and A Call for Revolution, as well as The Political Racket. Using numerous medical studies, government reports, and his own research, Gross exposes fraud and mistakes by doctors, hospitals and HMOs, costing the public billions of dollars, medical harm, and often loss of life. In addition to his shocking expose, he offers comprehensive solutions to the present chaos of medical care.
