"Based on a series of reports produced by the Blue Ridge Academic Health Group, which has developed a framework for meeting the challenges of improving health in the twenty-first century, it also contains invited commentaries and case studies from leading authorities in and beyond the United States. It identifies the public policies and organizational practices required to maximize the health status of individuals and the population, and highlights innovative practices." "This book is essential reading for managers and leaders of clinical and basic science departments in academic health centers, and for all those involved in health systems management studies."--BOOK JACKET.
