"A moving account of what it is like to be 'uninsured in America.' May it awaken the conscience of the nation."
“If Upton Sinclair aimed for the public's heart and hit its stomach instead, Sered and Fernandopulle's discussion of caste lands an unnerving shot to the mouth. . . .

“The effect can be chilling in that you can identify with someone’s story in this book. . . [I] was struck by [a blurb] I found from Atul Gawande. The stories are powerful and plainly told so that the reader understands that these stories are real. . . The authors have chosen wisely.”

"A vivid, indignant, and important book, and it does one thing better than any other before: Uninsured makes the abandoned millions visible again. Read it." —Atul Gawande, MD, author of Complications
