Crisis of Abundance: Rethinking How We Pay for Health Care
ASIN: 0226750760 |
Book Description
Good news first? The good news is that Americans today are living longer, in part because of continual advances in healthcare. But the bad news is that with our aging population larger than ever before, nothing is being done to ensure that we can continue to afford the increasing costs of care. How Medicare—with the Bush administration's reforms and a slumping economy—will meet the needs of its recipients without adequate financing is among the most pressing issues facing this country today.
Daniel N. Shaviro sees the future of our national healthcare system as hinging on the issue of funding. The author of books on the economic issues surrounding Social Security and budget deficits, Shaviro is a skilled guide for anyone seeking to understand the financial aspects of government programs. Who Should Pay for Medicare? offers an accessible overview of how Medicare operates as a fiscal system. Discussions of Medicare reform often focus on the expansion of program treatment choices but not on the question of who should pay for Medicare's services. Shaviro's book addresses this critical issue, examining the underanalyzed dynamics of the significant funding gap facing Medicare. He gives a balanced, nonpartisan evaluation of various reform alternatives—considering everything from the creation of new benefits in this fiscal crunch to tax cuts to the demographic pressures we face and the issues this will raise when future generations have to pay for the care of today's seniors.
Who Should Pay for Medicare? speaks to seniors who feel entitled to expanded coverage, younger people who wonder what to expect from the government when they retire, and Washington policy makers who need an indispensable guidebook to Medicare's future.

Quick & Easy Read...but informative.......2005-11-18
If you didn't realize Medicare was a pyramid scheme, you will after you finish this book. I love Medicare (and big government too) but something has got to change if it is goign to be around when I'm old enough to use it. Specifically, we need to phase-out intergenerational transfers.
But putting my own politics aside...
This book makes this complicated subject easy to understand for the beginner in health policy or for other interested people. It discusses different ways in which the growth of Medicare can be limited versus ways to generate revenue to cover the costs.

Customer Reviews:
a good book for collecting judgment.......2007-09-01
I learn to collect judgment from this book. this book provides many knowledges and skills to collect judgment. so you don't need to sell your judgment to collection agency.
how to win your law suit when you win in california.......2005-10-09
This a super purchase, since I am in the mist of collecting a judicial judgment. The only thing that would make it better is if, a CD came with the book with FORMS on it ( ready to fill out).

Save yourself lots of dough.......2004-08-21
I have used Nolo products for years. Both to help understand the law and it's processes even when using an attorney and to do some of my own legal work. I recently won a law suit of just over $150,000. The looser (in every sense of the term) had the assets but just wouldn't pay up. My attorney didn't do this kind of work, the court won't help (much) and the services that do this kind of work wanted 35%! I was not going to give up over $50,000 for what seemed like a fairly straightforward process. With this book it was a straightforward process. Within several days I had identified the assets (more than enough to satisfy the judgment) and was able to file the correct forms and follow the correct process. Within 45 days I had my money and could get on with my life.

Statistical Consulting
ASIN: 0534362281 |
Book Description
Dr. Janice Derr covers all aspects of statistical consulting. Using text and video, she integrates three themes that form the perspective of the book. First, a statistician should treat each client as a potential collaborator. Second, diversity must be appreciated. Students will see a variety of cultures, styles of communication and negotiation, and learning preferences in the book. Third, experienced statisticians and clients must work together in the process of training statistical consultants. On the CD-ROM, video segments bring the material to life and cover each aspect of statistical consulting by demonstrating good and bad techniques.
Customer Reviews:
Statisticians meet People.......2000-07-06
Modern statistics programs in universities rightly give heavy weight to the development of technical ability and understanding. However, many of those graduating from such programs need inter-personal skills to communicate with scientists who are not statisticians. Dr. Derr's book and accompanying video help the reader to develop such skills in a series of meaningful exercises.
The book is also designed for use as in a graduate statistics course in consulting. Statistics departments in universities that do not yet have such courses should start one, and will find this text an admirable basis for such an endeavor.
Book Description
"Statistical Consulting" provides the reader with a detailed overview of the knowledge and communication skills that a statistician needs to be an effective consultant. The reference to "reader" is intentional since the aim of this book is to clearly illustrate what the consultant needs to know from the client--and why! For clients who need to seek the help of a statistical consultant, this book explains, in plain language, what is involved in the consulting process. This book is primarily written for the student or statistician who is interested in becoming involved in consulting activities. Different types of statistical consulting environments are discussed, followed by a detailed description of the communication skills that a statistician needs to develop to be an effective consultant. In describing the statistical methodology that a consultant can employ, the importance of engaging the client's understanding of the purpose and interpretation of a statistical procedure is emphasized. It is assumed that the reader has the necessary technical skills to apply the statistical methods used in this book. Part I of the book concludes with a consultation project reproduced in its entirety. A wide range of case studies of varying complexity are presented in Part II of the book that will help the reader understand and appreciate the diversity of projects that can arise in statistical consulting. The appendices provide valuable information on resources, details on the SAS and S-PLUS software packages, and a collection of useful reference tables. This book would also be a suitable text for a graduate course on statistical consulting and a course outline is provided for the instructor in Appendix A.
