Review '[Starr's] unsentimental perspective serves him well in this outstanding volume.'--Harold Pollack, 'Washington Monthly'--Harold Pollack 'Washington Monthly ''[A] clear, comprehensive, and compelling chronicle of the health care debate....Starr is at the top of his game.'--Glenn Altschuler, 'Huffington Post'--Glenn C. Altschuler 'Huffington Post 'Winner of the 2011 PROSE Award in Government and Politics, as given by the Association of American Publishers.--Association of American Publishers'PROSE Award in Government and Politics' (02/02/2012)'[A] remarkable chronicle of the hundred-year effort to legislate universal health insurance in the United States....' --Bernard Avishai, 'The Nation'--Bernard Avishai 'The Nation ''First, [Starr] objectively draws together the threads of myriad voices and special interests in the centurylong American health-care debate and weaves them into a wholly comprehensible pattern. ...Second, Starr cogently explains the highlights of the recently passed and highly controversial Affordable Care Act...In sum, this self-admitted universal-health-care advocate and seasoned realist leaves readers questioning, as he does, whether Americans can 'summon the elementary decency toward the sick that characterizes other democracies.'' --Donna Chavez, 'Booklist' (starred review)--Donna Chavez 'Booklist ''The best summary and political analysis of health care reform I've read....Starr nails every nuance while taking the analysis one level deeper than any other treatment I've read.'--Austin Frakt, The 'Incidental Economist'--Austin Frakt 'The Incidental Economist ''Here's the book we've been waiting for--a lucid history of America's struggle over healthcare reform, blending the political, economic, and social pressures that have brought us to where we are, and suggesting where we're headed. With great insight and impeccable writing, Paul Starr explains why that struggle has been particularly bitter and partisan in the United States, why the resulting compromises have left so many people unsatisfied, and why the underlying problems continue to evade us. Brilliant and important.'--Robert B. Reich, Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy, Goldman School of Public Policy, University of California, Berkeley--Robert B. Reich (06/17/2011)''Remedy and Reaction' is the story of health care in America, told by the man who knows it best. Whether you're a serious scholar or just a serious citizen, you should read this.'--Jonathan Cohn, senior editor, 'The New Republic'--Jonathan Cohn (06/14/2011)'Three decades ago Paul Starr wrote the definitive history of American medicine. Remedy and Reaction now offers the definitive analysis of American health care reform--its history, nature, and continuing vulnerability.'--Timothy Jost, co-editor, 'Transforming American Medicine: A Twenty Year Retrospective' --Timothy Jost (06/06/2011)'Paul Starr has written a fascinating chronicle of America's century-long journey to health reform that is, at once, erudite history, vivid journalism, and authoritative guide to a debate that will continue for decades.'--Henry J. Aaron, co-author of 'Using Taxes to Reform Health Care'--Henry Aaron (06/02/2011)'Paul Starr, who gave us a magisterial account of the history of American medicine, now has given us the definitive account of the history of the struggle to enact health reform in America. Starr has done more than just study reform--he was a player in efforts to achieve it. 'Remedy and Reaction' is in some ways thus an insider's history, which only enriches the experience of the reader. This book is a lively read, but has depth and insight. From its account of the early experiences in the twentieth century with reform, up through the disappointments in our livetimes to achieve any comprehensive change, through the enactment of the Affordable Care Act and the story of its uncertain future, 'Remedy and Reaction' is the definitive account of the history of health reform in America.' --Norman Ornstein, co-author of 'The Broken Branch: How Congress Is Failing America and How to Get it Back on Track'--Norman Ornstein (06/27/2011)'Few books as important as this one is are as clearly and compellingly written. 'Remedy and Reaction' is a brilliant analysis of the political conflicts and compromises that led to the passage of the Affordable Care Act, and a fitting sequel to Paul Starr's masterful book, 'The Social Transformation of American Medicine'. The final page came much too soon.'--Shannon Brownlee, author of 'Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine is Making Us Sicker and Poorer'--Shannon Brownlee (06/28/2011)' [A] remarkable chronicle of the hundred-year effort to legislate universal health insurance in the United States.... Nobody with a sense of history--that is, nobody who reads Starr's book--could doubt how sensible and brave was the president's effort to drive the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 through Congress.' --Bernard Avishai, 'The Nation'--Bernard Avishai 'The Nation ''[D]elivers an insightful political analysis.'--Kristen Greencher, 'The Charlotte Observer'--Kristen Greencher 'The Charlotte Observer ''None of the numerous other histories of US health care policy develops these themes in such an illuminating fashion. . . . [an] excellent, cogently argued work.'--Samuel Y./i>--Samuel Y. Sessions 'Journal of the American Medical Association ''[An] interesting and engaging account of the many attempts made over the past century to reform care in this country. As daunting, even wonkish, as this may sound, Starr does an excellent job of explaining the different proposals and identifying the reasons why some succeeded where others failed so spectacularly.'--Dennis Rosen, 'Boston Globe'--Dennis Rosen 'Boston Globe ''[C]oncise and beautifully written.'--Michael Gusmano, 'Commonweal'--Michael Gusmano 'Commonweal ''[A] useful and lucid history of American health reform . . . Anyone seeking to understand how difficult it will be to implement President Barack Obama's health care reforms will be enlightened by Starr's readable and engrossing narrative. Highly recommended.'--Jeff Goldsmith, 'Health Affairs'--Jeff Goldsmith 'Health Affairs ''Illuminating. . . This book provides one of the clearest descriptions and best justifications of the Affordable Care Act published to date...[An] excellent, cogently argued work.'--Samuel Y./i>--Samuel Y. Sessions 'Journal of the American Medical Association ''[I]f I were forced to assign only one book to summarize the historical context, political constraints, and policy dilemmas that shaped the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), I would definitely choose this tart and briskly paced 300-page work. I would do the same if I had to recommend one book to a well-informed colleague who obsessively followed the 2009 and 2010 legislative debate leading up to the PPACA. I was surprised by how much I learned reading Remedy and Reaction, as I was a close observer and partisan participant in that story.'--Harold Pollack, 'Public Administration Review'--Harold Pollack 'Public Administration Review 'Winner of the 2011 American Publishers Awards and Scholarly Excellence (PROSE) in the Government and Politics category, as given by the Association of American Publishers--PROSE Award in Government and Politics'Association of American Publishers' (02/02/2012) Read more About the Author Paul Starr is professor of sociology and public affairs, Princeton University, and cofounder and coeditor of The American Prospect.
