Building a better delivery system : a new engineering/health care partnership / Proctor P. Reid, W. Dale Compton, Jerome H. Grossman, and Gary Fanjiang, editors.
In a joint effort between the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine, this books attempts to bridge the knowledge/awareness divide separating health care professionals from their potential partners in systems engineering and related disciplines. The goal of this partnership is...
