Dutton provides a penetrating historical analysis of why countless studies show that Americans are far less healthy than their European counterparts. \nDutton argues that Europeans are healthier than Americans because beginning in the late nineteenth century European nations began construction of health systems that focused not only on medical care but the broad social determinants of health: where and how we live, work, play.
