"As valuable a resource as any I've found."--Jane Gross, New York Times
"A valuable book, chilling and comforting in equal measure. A similar book directed at fast doctors, fast hospital administrators and fast insurers might be the next welcome stride backward down the path."--New York Times
"Full of advice on how to get involved in [your parents'] care, and the kind of conversations you should have with their doctors. It's also a warning about the medical profession's alarming tendency toward 'poly-pharmacy.'"--Maclean's
