How It Goes in Mexico

Уведоми ме, когато книгата е добавена

Carol Merchasin first visited San Miguel de Allende in 2005, fell in love with its language, people, and culture, and moved there full-time with her husband shortly thereafter. A lawyer by training, Merchasin is curious about how everything around her in Mexico works—the health care system, religious rituals, loaning money, small change at the market, narcotrafficantes, telenovelas, and the subtleties between the verbs ser and estar. An intrepid researcher, she informally consults her neighbors, history books, and experts until she’s satisfied. In How It Goes in Mexico, her essays are by turns funny and poignant, and her portrayal of Mexico is neither romantic nor wary, but respectful and compassionate.

The White House Office of Management and Budget reports that one-third of U.S. health care expenditures (in 2012, a chin-dropping $2.7 trillion) do not result in better health. That’s a lower success rate than a Chicago meteorologist in spring. We have fancy medical offices, hard-to-get appointments, and cutting-edge medical tests and interventions that raise costs but do not deliver higher quality care. We are focused on the shiny high-priced things, when much of what we lack is more simple—easy access to and adequate time with our doctors.
Mexican health care delivery is personal and accessible, at least as long as you
