Inhaltsangabe

If someone were to ask you what the leading cause of death is among American children today, what would you say? Cancer? Car accidents? Obesity? The answer is firearms. Guns kill more children in our country than anything else. It’s a shocking statistic, no matter your politics. So how do we solve it? Where can we find common ground on one of the most divisive issues in America?
The solution, according to Dr. Gorelick, lies in public health. In Saving Our Kids: An ER Doc’s Common-Sense Solution to the Gun Crisis, Dr. Gorelick unfurls a roadmap that everyone from pediatricians to the general public can follow. The key is taking a fresh look at the issue of guns through the lens of public health and leading the debate away from partisanship and toward reasonable policies that will save children’s lives. As a father, pediatrician, and leader of one of the largest independent pediatric health systems in the United States, Dr. Gorelick has viewed the issue of gun violence up close, from many angles, for many years. All that experience has brought him to one conclusion: we can solve this crisis if we prioritize our children’s health.
