[The author] draws on his two years as a member of Senator Warren Magnuson's staff to trace the drafting and passing of the National Health Service Bill (S.4106) with all the maneuvers, plots, counterplots, frustrations, triumphs, work, and dedication involved. He draws a vivid picture of the bureaucratic infighting, political prerogatives, and Congressional courtesies necessary to make something happen on Capitol Hill.-Back cover.
