From Booklist:

Bill has made his speech before both houses of Congress, and Hillary's made the first of many trips to Capitol Hill to testify, but many Americans are still confused about where they fit in "The Clinton Blueprint" of health care reform. Listening to politicians and pundits is one way to seek clarity; a better way may be to go to the source--this fairly detailed outline of the program the Clinton administration is proposing. It goes without saying that this particular version of reform will be bent, folded, spindled, and mutilated in astonishing ways, by supporters as well as opponents, in the months of debate before any legislation reaches the president's desk for signature. Still, this is where the debate begins; this is the document that can answer many of the ordinary citizen's questions. The President's Health Security Plan includes a full load of economic blather, medical and insurance jargon, and endless, bulleted lists, but readers with the patience to slog through it will know more about health care reform than most of the nation's elected and self-appointed pundits.
