Callahan proposes a health care system to meet the most basic needs of Americans that focuses on preventing and treating diseases that afflict the many rather than the few, thus improving the quality of life for the elderly and chronically ill and concentrating resources on primary care and public health. He argues that US society must rethink its attitude toward death and sickness if the health care system is to be sustainable. The 1998 cloth edition was published by Simon and Schuster. Annotation c.
