The Hospital: Life, Death, and Dollars in a Small American Town by Brian Alexander

5.0

By following the struggle for survival of one small-town hospital, and the patients who walk, or are carried, through its doors, The Hospital (St. Martin’s Press) takes readers into the world of the American medical industry in a way no book has done before. Americans are dying sooner and living in poorer health. Brian Alexander argues that no plan will solve America’s health crisis until the deeper causes of that crisis are addressed. Culminating in COVID-19, this book details how we’ve created the dilemma we’re in.
