Book excerpt: Our health care is killing us-literally and figuratively-with an out-of-control bureaucracy, massive inefficiency, thousands of preventable medical errors, an unabated profit motive, and our own complacency. It seems as though it will only get worse before it gets better. We must become more educated and involved as consumers, not only to optimize the benefits of medicine but also to avoid harm from those who regulate it and those who administer it.
