This fifth edition of Where Medicine Fails, like previous editions, argues for a broader definition of society's responsibilities to the ill than is commonly perceived to be the case. It emphasizes the importance of distinguishing among political, social, and medical rehabilitation of individuals. Contributors carefully but dramatically document areas in which marketplace considerations take precedence over concern for the health of the nation.
