Praise for the First Edition of "Vulnerable Populations in the United States"
"An excellent primer for undergraduates and graduate students interested in vulnerable populations and health disparities."
--"New England Journal of Medicine"
"Combines thoughtful, coherent theory with a large amount of information available in a single source. It will prove to be a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, teachers, and students alike for years to come."
--"Journal of the American Medical Association"
"A very worthwhile read for health care administrators, health policy analysts, public health and health promotion practitioners, students of public health, and health researchers."
--"Inquiry"
"It makes clear that, for political, social, and economic (as well as moral) reasons, the country must increasingly make vulnerable populations a national health policy priority."
--"Journal of Health Care for the Poor and Underserved"
"I have reviewed a number of books looking for meaningful content to help my students understand and work with vulnerable populations. This is the most comprehensive, yet understandable book on the topic."
--"Doody's Reviews"
"Provides much-needed guidance to policymakers challenged with providing solutions to this embarrassing issue in the United States."
--F. Douglas Scutchfield, MD, Peter P. Bosomworth Professor of Health Services Research and Policy, University of Kentucky
