Just how much is wrong with the American way of healthcare?

Elizabeth Rosenthal will join us to talk about her important new book, An American Sickness.

So there was a feeling that nobody pays and when the feeling is that nobody pays, then

of course all of the providers think, well you know if I'm charging $100 for this, I

could charge $200 or I could charge $500 or I could charge $5,000.

Is there a rape crisis on campus?

Or is it all manufactured hysteria?

Jill Philippovich will join us to talk about her new take on two books with pointedly

contrarian views of gender, sex and violence.

Kipness certainly recognizes that rape happens and sexual violence on campus happens, but her

argument is that we've sort of relied on these really aggressive stereotypes of men either

as predatory or potentially predatory and women as victims or potential victims.

Alexander Alter will give us an update from the literary world.

Plus, we'll talk about what we and the wider world are reading.

This is Inside the New York Times Book Review.

I'm Pamela Paul.

Elizabeth Rosenthal joins us now from Washington.

She is the author of an American Sickness, How Health Care Became Big Business and How

You Can Take It Back.

Elizabeth, thanks for being here.

Oh, thanks for having me.

So you are a reporter at the New York Times for many years until very recently.
