John Geyman, a medical doctor from Friday Harbor and writer about national health care policy since 1990, has published a new 28-page pamphlet titled “Common Sense about Health Care Reform in America.”

It takes an approach similar to Thomas Paine, who in 1775-76 wrote a pamphlet titled “Common Sense,” urging people to gain independence from England based on simple facts, plain arguments and common sense. In this pamphlet, Geyman examines the options for health care reform today using these same criteria. It is available at Griffin Bay Books for $5.95.
