It's no secret that American health care has become too costly and politicized to help everyone. So where do you turn if you can't afford doctors, or don't trust them? In this book, Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling examines the growing universe of non-traditional treatments—including some that are really non-traditional. With costs skyrocketing and anti-science sentiment spreading, the so-called "medical freedom" movement has grown. Now it faces its greatest challenge: going mainstream.

Lots of connections to understand why our world has gone haywire.

Like one true cures, there is no one true reason why American, social and civic discourse has become unhinged in recent years. Nonetheless, this book offers a coherent set of observations, on the descent into pseudoscience that dovetail with the rise of extreme right nationalism and the destruction of civil and political institutions that form the basis of a functioning society. Often scathingly ironic in his commentary, Hongoltz-Hetling never loses compassion for the victims of medical quacks and tries to find more than the villain in the practitioners of quackery.

In an era of ballooning corporate campaign expenditures, unleashed by the Supreme Court in Citizens United, trust in our government is at an all time low. More than ever before, Americans believe that money buys results in Congress - and that our Republic has been lost.Using examples that resonate as powerfully on the Right as on the Left, Republic, Lost not only makes clear how the economy of influence defeats the will of the people, but offers cogent strategies to correct our course....

What made the experience of listening to Republic, Lost the most enjoyable?
Lessig explores the problems associated with campaing finances as they relate to the disfunction in our government. It is a wonderful non-partisan exploration of how the people lost control of our representative govenrment to the monied few. Listen, learn, and act.
