Hear Colleen Grogan, PhD, discuss her new book Grow and Hide: The History of America’s Health Care State. Americans typically believe the current system is predominantly comprised of private actors with little government interference. In Grow and Hide, Grogan details the history of the American health care state and argues that the public has been intentionally misled about the true role of government.
