"John Lantos is a physician who sees, far more clearly than most, the critical state of medicine as a profession. Buffeted by social forces, economic pressures, and new conceptions of health care, the physician is often bewildered, angry, and unsure of his or her role. Dr. Lantos very cogently, and incisively, looks at the new possibilities, and the new problems, and suggests important directions for the future vitality of the physician as a professional."    - Steve Schroeder, Former President, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
