Medicare Kills a Program


Ordered my copy y'day. Looking forward to it.
Didn't get book 2. Just a working schlub and that's a lot of $ for 100 pages on my budget (especially since "Not What They Had in Mind" is free.
Got any non-blog reviews of 2? I can probably get a couple libraries to buy it w some positive published reviews.
I have just finished reading it, and I strongly recommend it to both economists and non-economists alike (it has very little technical jargon and no math). The book is very insightful and informative.
The only chapter I did not find excellent was the chapter on entrepreneurship, which seemed simply to repeat well-known generalities.
However, several of the interviews with outstanding economists did provide fresh and important insights into entrepreneurship.
2 to 3 weeks to get book 1 thru Amazon. Hopefully means that it's selling better than the publisher expected.
Tried to order it through a bookstore in Australia - price quoted $64.99 (AUD)!!! As an economist I had to conclude the cost exceeded my expected utility from the exchange. Still planning to buy it - will wait till it gets cheaper in Australia.
