Integrated health care delivery

چکیده
This book comprises an edited collection of research studies and conceptual essays on the topic of integrated care. There is no specific logic to the presentation of the material and the contents represent a highly varied and eclectic mix of subjects. Indeed, the contents have all the hallmarks of a set of conference papers that have been collated together without a huge amount of thought. As a result, the book and its contents are partly good and partly bad—like a ‘curate’s egg’.
