The book has been praised by many, including Former Jersey City, NJ mayor and King’s College professor, Bret Schundler, who says, “I believe that healthcare will be the big domestic policy issue in the 2008 election for President, and that Professor Herzlinger’s ideas will be a major focus of the debate.”
