I wasn't clear -- sorry. What happens when I type inbetween kids calling.
David Hufford presented the lecture. And it was beyond fascinating. But it
was tantalizing -- just a taste and I wanted much more. He quoted Starr
somewhat extensively. I'm unfamiliar with Starr and obviously need to inform
myself.
I'm very anxious to read a couple of Hufford's books. I also think now I
need to read Social Transformation. Looking for Starr on Amazon, there is a
new
book --

Hi Julie,
Was the lecture as interesting as I'd expect from Paul Starr? His book _
The Social Transformation of American Medicine_ is superb. Accessible,
well-researched, well thought-out, and deserving of its Pulitzer. I read it
soon after it was published, in the 80s. He has a new book out now, doesn't
he?
Best,
Carol
