Reviews
"John Goodman is one of the most creative thinkers of our time in the complex world of health care policy. In his book New Way to Care , he puts forth important, thought-provoking ideas about the role of government in the personal lives of Americans. Read it!" -- Scott W. Atlas , M.D., Robert Wesson Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, "Long one of the nation's leading health policy experts, Goodman has a history of proposing the next big thing in market-based reforms. New Way to Care takes readers on a tour of federal entitlement programs in search for win-win policy changes that can leave everyone better off." -- Mitchel E. Daniels Jr. , President, Purdue University; former Governor of Indiana, "John Goodman is an extraordinarily deep, knowledgeable, and original architect of American domestic policy. His book New Way to Care provides a compelling path out of our terrible social insurance policy morass. It is a must read for anyone. . ." --Laurence J. Kotlikoff , William Fairfield Warren Distinguished Professor, Boston University, "John Goodman is someone everyone should listen to when it comes to healthcare policy--with his book New Way to Care , the same can now be said for social insurance. . .While others propose more regulation to cure the ills caused by past regulations, Goodman proposes the types of market-based reforms that can make our social insurance system function better." -- Kevin M. Murphy , George J. Stigler Distinguished Service Professor of Economics, University of Chicago, "No one has worked longer and more effectively at creating a modern, people-oriented and affordable health system than John Goodman. He is an amazing pioneer and his book New Way to Care reflects his knowledge and his insights." -- Newt Gingrich , former Majority Leader, U.S. House of Representatives, "In New Way to Care , John Goodman is consistently ahead of his time with market solutions which align incentives that respect the agency of individuals while ensuring there is a social safety net. What he writes today will be policy in the coming years." -- Bill Cassidy , M.D., U.S. Senator
