Delivering Health Care in America, Third Edition provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the basic structures and operations of one of the largest sectors of the U.S. economy. With the most current data, legislation, and overall system changes addressed, the third edition covers the conceptual basis for the system, its historical origins, the structures of ambulatory care, inpatient care, and other important services structures, the translation of these structures into health services themselves, and the manifestations of their impact on costs and quality. The text includes learning objectives, review questions, and key terminology.

This encyclopedic work describes the phenotype spectrum, epidemiology, mode of inheritance, and pathogenesis of nearly 700 genetic syndromes. Uniquely comprehensive, it depicts the clinical features of all known genetic disorders affecting the head and neck and contains over 2300 illustrations. The authors make a clear distinction between doubtful and authentic cases, and bibliographies accompany each syndrome to encourage further research. This is a reorganized, completely rewritten and greatly expanded version of the second edition. It will be an invaluable guide for all clinicians dealing with patients who have head and neck syndromes.
