Reviews
"Dr. Makary takes a deep dive into the real issues driving up the price of health care and explains how we can all take action to restore medicine to its noble mission." -- Don Berwick MD, senior fellow, Institute for Health Care Improvement "Over the course of decades, American health care lost the 'care' component and devolved to a big, wasteful business. In his new book, Marty Makary undertakes an extensive listening tour and astutely deconstructs how this occurred and what we need to do about it." -- Eric Topol MD, Editor-in-Chief, Medscape; bestselling author of THE PATIENT WILL SEE YOU NOW "I absolutely loved this book. Insightful, sharp, and essential reading-one of the top 5 books I've ever read." -- Jay Newton-Small, TIME Magazine contributor and author of BROAD INFLUENCE "Marty Makary is a great storyteller, making accessible the business of medicine and the new ideas disrupting it without losing the important details. Everyone should read this book, and then demand a more transparent and fair system." -- Shantanu Agrawal MD, President and CEO, the National Quality Forum "A valuable and illuminating read, full of intriguing insights into the use of decision-making in medicine and health care and how to make things work for all." -- Cass Sunstein, NYT bestselling co-author of NUDGE and Professor, Harvard Law School "Marty Makary is one of the great thought leaders in medicine and his new book, The Price We Pay , brilliantly lifts the veil on the state of modern medicine and the new ideas that are disrupting it." -- former Senator William H. Frist, MD "Every once in a while a book comes along that rocks the foundations of an established order that's seriously in need of being shaken. The modern American hospital is that establishment and Unaccountable is that book." -- Shannon Brownlee, author of Overtreated, on UNACCOUNTABLE "A must-read for every American and business leader." -- Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief, FORBES magazine "Dr. Makary artfully sifts through complex data to shine light on a path for those seeking to build a better health care system." -- Aneesh Chopra, former U.S. Chief Technology Officer and President of CareJourney "[ Unaccountable ] is an eye-opening look at the culture of medicine. And it's not pretty." -- CNN on UNACCOUNTABLE "A searing insider's look at what really goes on behind the scenes at major hospitals . . . a galvanizing book full of shocking truths about the current state of health care." -- Kirkus on UNACCOUNTABLE "This thought-provoking guide from a leader in the field is a must-read for M.D.s, and an eye-opener for the rest of us." -- Publishers Weekly on UNACCOUNTABLE "Marty Makary offers a searing indictment from the inside." -- Wall Street Journal on UNACCOUNTABLE, " Dr. Makary takes a deep dive into the real issues driving up the price of health care and explains how we can all take action to restore medicine to its noble mission." -- Don Berwick MD, senior fellow, Institute for Healthcare Improvement "[ The Price We Pay ] is a fascinating look at people and communities throughout America--Dr. Makary blends reportage, research, and personal anecdotes about how money is really spent in healthcare, how we got to where we are today, and who is affected the most. I just started this one, and I already want to tell everyone to read it ." -- BookRiot, "What to Read for #ScienceSeptember" "In this thoroughly reported primer Makary authoritatively and conversationally explains the money games of medicine. . . . He found that working Americans feel that the system is stacked against them; it seems that they''re right. . . . Consider this book a powerful call to action for more information about health costs and for restoring the ''noble mission'' of treating everyone with fairness and dignity." -- Booklist, starred review "A must-read for every American." -- Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief, FORBES magazine "I absolutely loved this book. Insightful, sharp, and essential reading -one of the top 5 books I''ve ever read." -- Jay Newton-Small, TIME Magazine contributor and author of BROAD INFLUENCE "Marty Makary is a great storyteller, making accessible the business of medicine and the new ideas disrupting it without losing the important details.

He clearly demonstrates how medical care is secretive and predatory and why skyrocketing costs can be accounted for by the money games of medicine . . . Makary rightly takes the health care business to task, but he also offers a ray of hope that change can and will happen." -- Kirkus "Every once in a while a book comes along that rocks the foundations of an established order that''s seriously in need of being shaken. The modern American hospital is that establishment and Unaccountable is that book." -- Shannon Brownlee, author of Overtreated, on UNACCOUNTABLE "[ Unaccountable ] is an eye-opening look at the culture of medicine.
