Reviews

Medical Necessity brings high-level theoretical concepts to bear on the idea of necessity, showing that this uniquely important aspect of contemporary medical administration appears and recedes in relation to a set of actors--doctors, patients, insurance companies, paraprofessionals, and lawyers--who manage the classification of treatments and negotiate the technical aspects of 'need' within their domains. --Cindy Patton, editor of Rebirth of the Clinic: Places and Agents in Contemporary Health Care
