Reviews:
"Total Cure is a calm, fearless leap across the abyss of health policy cynicism and the greatest to improbabilities: a comprehensive, detailed, and practical CTRL-ALT-DEL for the U.S. health care system." --Health Affairs.
"Of the numerous discussions of health care reform, many are longer on diagnosis than on prescription. Total Cure is a notable exception to that tendency....SecureChoice is an ingenious, carefully constructed proposal." --Journal of the American Medical Association.
"Luft presents a thought-provoking and original proposal in Total Cure...Now is the time to evaluate SecureChoice and other health care proposals."-- New England Journal of Medicine.
"Luft has written a sober, thoughtful volume...It may also prove very influential."-- Forbes.com
"The phrase 'disruptive innovation' is a apt description of the breadth of what Luft envisions....Total Cure in whole or in part should definitely be included in the syllabus of a course that addresses what we might do to reform the U.S. health care system." --Inquiry
...and an interview on the origins of the book.
