PositiveOpen Letters ReviewMakary has written an engaging and eye-opening look at the healthcare system. As someone also perplexed by the intricacies of the healthcare system, I could not put the book down as Makary shed light on the games that many different components of healthcare are engaged in with patients. I was inspired by the efforts of people like Makary who are taking the initiative to fix the broken parts of the healthcare system. After reading this book, you’ll probably never look at the healthcare system the same again, but you may also have a glimmer of hope for the future.
P. E Moskowitz
PositiveOpen Letters ReviewThe Case Against Free Speech provides a view of free speech that will challenge people of all political stances, not just radical liberals. This isn’t surprising, as Moskovitz makes his leftist leaning views, and his sympathy for Black Lives Matter and Antifa, quite clear in the book\'s Introduction. However, he puts his arguments into perspective by showing the reader what is happening today in the U.S. and making a clear connection to events in the pasts that have led to what we see today. Ultimately, whether the reader agrees with Moskowitz’s view of free speech, if the reader critically examines their opinions on free speech [the book] was not written in vain.
Timothy C. Winegard
PositiveOpen Letters ReviewThis book is well-suited for those who enjoy popular history, with Winegard writing an engaging account of the mosquito’s impact on the broader world ... However, there are times when I felt like I was coming to the end of a chapter because it read like it was wrapping up only for me to find pages of new information before the chapter’s end - almost as if I were reading a mid-chapter summary. But Winegard has written a generally fascinating account of humanity’s deadly relationship with the mosquito, and we are reminded that the mosquito is just as much a threat today as it was in the past. After finishing this book, the reader’s feelings of disgust toward the mosquito will be reinforced but perhaps also accompanied by a new begrudging respect for the small but without a doubt deadliest predator of the human species.
