"Any exciting book about the history of Bellevue--which this one surely is--is destined to be as much about the history of disease, medicine and New York City as about the hospital itself." --Jennifer Senior, The New York Times "Brilliant and deliciously readable.... The story of Bellevue, Oshinsky convincingly demonstrates, is the story of modern medicine, of New York City, and of America itself." --Boston Globe "Deeply engrossing.... Oshinsky has wrestled an institutional history of significant complexity into a compelling tale." --Chicago Tribune
