"A beautifully wrought book that is an important addition to the social history of medicine. It is a compassionate and highly readable account of a part of the medical picture that is too often ignored--the patients."--Douglas Starr, author of "Blood: An Epic History of Medicine and Commerce" "Susan Resnik has interpreted the engrossing story of hemophilia to engage both the sophisticated scientist and the curious general reader. She raises important ethical issues and helps translate words into actions, turning information into real change."--Clarence E.

Gotsch, President, American Public Health Association
