Amazon.com description: Product Description: Since 1972, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has been the nation's largest philanthropy devoted exclusively to health. To further its mission of improving the health and health care of all Americans, it provides funds for demonstration projects, educational and communications activities, training, policy analysis, and research. As part of the Foundation's efforts to inform the public, To Improve Health and Health Care, the seventh volume in The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Anthology series, provides an in-depth look into the programs it funds.
