This book is a historical and political analysis of the public health system in the United States since 1798. A major part of the analysis is aimed at the relationship between the development of the public health system and that of private medicine. The conclusion is that this relationship influences the politics of public health still today, in terms of a sharp division and a lack of integration between the two.
