FANTASTIC!!!

Truely one of the best books I've read, EVER!! Pick it up, you'll love it!!! An excellent "summer reading" book, hard to put down, I finished it in one day at the beach.

I'm Speechless!!!

If this isn't a page turner I don't know what is... My dog ruined the carpet, and I forgot to take my insulin I was so entranced by this book. I have purchased 12 copies for my friends and when I get paid I will buy 12 more. Amazing.

Boortz Recommended it.... I gotta read it...

Sounds interesting... I'm buying the Fair Tax Book and i'll buy this one too... I can't wait to read it.. Chris Bacon

Excellent Book

I'm an avid reader and found this one to be a page turner. It is a fast read because you want to know what is happening with the characters. This is my first book by these authors and I intend to read their other book "Prescription for Greed". Look forward to reading more books from them. Pat Will

Excellent page-turner

There are few books that are as gripping as this one and, at the same time, written by two co-authors who know as much as anyone can about the setting of the story: medical practice on the one hand, and the way corporations function on the other. One author, Dr. Willis Hurst, was a Professor of Medicine and Chairman of the Department of Medicine at Emory Mediical School. He retired after some thirty years in that position. He is a distinguished cardiologist who has written numerous medical books and articles. The other author, his son Philip Hurst, holds the Ph.D.degree in psychology, and he is President and CEO of a consulting firm for industry. They have written exciting fiction about corruption involving a powerful medical service and supply corporation and its attempts, by any criminal means it could muster, to control the practice of medicine, what medications are prescribed to patients regardless of their deadly side effects, and so on. If you must sleep do not start reading this book late at night. You will not be able to put it down. I will be astonished if its film rights are not quickly grabbed.
