This anthology brings together the personal stories of patients,
physicians, policy makers, and others whose writings humanize
discussions and deliberations about health policy.
Drawn from the popular "Narrative Matters" column in the journal
Health Affairs, the essays epitomize the policy narrative, a new
genre of writing that explores health policy through the expression
of personal experiences. Forty-six articles focus on such topics as
the hard financial realities of medical insurance, AIDS, assisted
suicide, marketing drugs, genetic engineering, organ transplants,
and ethnic and racial disparities in the health care system. The
narratives raise ethical and moral issues that are being studied in
many of our nation's medical schools.
This compelling collection provides important insight into the
human dimensions of health care and health policy.
