Should be a must read for everyone

If you have any doubts that big pharma is NOT looking out for you... read this.

From a "Medical System Insider"...

I was riveted to this book. Mr Webb is highly qualified as an insider hospital administrator and inventor. He has, at the time of writing the book, 27 US patents for medical equipment - including the nursery ID bracelet which plays the right song when matched to the Mother. His observations are valid, and his healthcare insurance predictions are already coming to pass. The book is eye opening and appeals on several levels, but his health status comparison between he and his twin brother (with their opposite lifestyles) is very convincing. The book is in a good-sized print, and is not so long as to be overwhelming to a "non-reader".

A Wake-Up Call for All Type A's and Couch Potatoes

I heard Nicholas J. Webb speak on August 30, 2003. His message is compelling. No more free rides on our health care system - it's on it way out. Be responsible or be vulnerable to the "bottom line" mentality of a broken health care system.I'm ordering extra copies to get the word out to my family, friends and business associates.
