What do you think about the way the book is presented?
Do you feel like this book is a collection of scattered pieces of information or do you see a logical connection in between these content? What might have been the author's intention in including all this lateral information when she wanted to talk about the 'business aspect' of healthcare system?

I agree with you, the fact that the author showed her story makes the book more relatable since we see that she is a common person who also needs to use the healthcare system. I thought about it because a lot of authors tend to distance themselves from the situations their non-fiction books talk about, but this isn't the case of this book.

I hadn't thought about the self-help aspect of this book like that before reading your comment, but now I see that the author wrote this book with a lot of self-love indeed. She cares about people and loves her work, which is pretty inspirational.Suzer6440 xyz wrote: ↑01 Jun 2021, 23:16 “Knowledge is power”. This proves to be true by reading the journey of a woman with a plethora of knowledge in the business of healthcare. Soon becoming a patient herself, the author made the story about her experience in the incredible difference of now being a person on the other side.This is a fantastic self-help book that was written with self love and much care and kindness. The content is Logical as I do not feel there is any evidence of scattered pieces of information at all.

Indeed, that aspect when she talks about herself as a patient really approximates her to us, and when she talks about herself as a practitioner she gives us important arguments on the subject as something close to her job experiences. That aspect of the book is fascinating.Amanda Dobson wrote: ↑01 Jun 2021, 11:51 I think that this book should be taken as screen shots of her life and her perspective of how things have changed for her. She wrote both sides one as a patient with her own experiences and from the side of the practitioner.

I didn't give much thought to that topic of living wills, but it's true that most people don't think about it and the lack of it can cause fights in the family too. It's interesting how this book brings so many themes that aren't directly related to your personal health, but you find out that they are actually related.REIGNING20 wrote: ↑02 Jun 2021, 01:19 I was most intrigued about the topic on creating living wills because people rarely think about whom they want to leave their inheritance to. Moreover, I believe the concerns raised by the author are relevant in contemporary times as they are not merely scattered ideas.
