fascinating
This is a fascinating book that combines brilliant legal scholarship with cultural studies and social theory. Rollins has done something wonderful here. His argument about the ironies and silences within legal discourse on AIDS is provocative and convincing. I highly recommend this book. ... Read more

Not enough details
After reading this book, I was very disappointed that it lacked the details of how to actually comply with the HIPAA regulations in the real world.About half of the book is the act itself which you can download from the US Department of Health and Human Services. The other half contains the background of HIPAA, how to determine if you are a covered entity, and very general information that you can easily obtain by searching the Internet.I would not recommend this book if you are looking for specific details and examples on how to interpret the act and create your own HIPPA compliance plan. ...

to general to help
This book is too general to help the average person with a health insurance problem.It is not a comprehensive legal guide to the issues. You will need more information.

A Supremely Courageous, Truthful, and Useful Book
This book is a supremely courageous and truthful book written by one of the great luminaries of the age(s). On Having the Freedom to Change Your Mind
When I got a copy of this book - having forgotten about Dr. Szasz's breadth of outlook and singular erudition - I thought I was going to read anice little political tract condemning the current American DrugProhibition."Our Right to Drugs" is that, of course, but it isso much more - it is a call to intellectual and political arms. Good philosophical arguments, but politically naive

Terrible to read!
This book is extremely hard to read.It does not attempt to engage the reader.In addition, instead of using footnotes, the style of the citations (non-legal) are mixed in with the text which makes for very hard, long, and boring reading!!! ... Read more

How to Give Nutritional Advice Legally
How best to say this:If you live in Canada it is a great guide, otherwise,save your money!This boarders on false advertisement -- barely a mention that this booklet (not a book) deals near exclusively with Canadian law.

VERY DISAPPOINTED
THIS BOOK IS ONLY OF REAL VALUE IF YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE ADVICE IN CANADA.IT IS THE PRODUCT OF THIER UNIQUE REGULATORY SYSTEM & OF EXTREMELY LIMITED VALUE ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD (LIKE THE "GOOD OLD" USA).ALTHOUGH IT THE ABOVE AD MENTIONS CANADA IN THE AUTHORS BIOGRAHY, IT FAILS TO POINT THIS FACT OUT IN THE BODY OF THE REVIEW.
