Are you against "catchy" titles? If you write a really good book and nobody reads it because it has a dull title, what good it that? It wouldn't be very smart of the authors if they go through a lot of trouble and no one buys the book.

Is a book written for profit a bad thing necessarily? And in this case they have to split the money between 4 doctors. How about our personal physicians. Don't they make a profit off of every office visit? Is that bad?
Can we believe them when they say we need to come back for a follow-up exam?

It's "Centers" for Disease Control, a government agency, which is part of HHS. I doubt the physicians who work for CDC, NIH, or other similar agencies make a boatload of cash. Since they are government employees you can look up how much they are paid
