520    At present, human society is facing a health care crisis 
       that is affecting patients worldwide. In the United States,
       it is generally believed that the major problem is lack of
       affordable access to health care (i.e. health insurance). 
       This book takes an unprecedented approach to address this 
       issue by proposing that the major problem is not lack of 
       affordable access to health care per se, but lack of 
       access to better, safer, and more affordable medicines. 
       The latter problem is present not only in the United 
       States and the developing world but also in countries with
       socialized health care systems, such as Europe and the 
       rest of the industrialized world. This book provides a 
       comparative analysis of the health care systems throughout
       the world and also examines the biotechnology and 
       pharmaceutical industries. Examines the health care 
       structure of the United States, Europe, and the third 
       world, both separately and comparatively offers primary 
       source insight through in-depth interviews with 
       pharmaceutical and health care industry leaders from 
       around the world. Carefully explains, in clear terms, the 
       intricacies of the health care and pharmaceutical system 
       and how these intricacies have led to the current crisis. 
       Offers concrete, comprehensive solutions to the health 
       care crisis.
