Review Tough Choices: Investing in Health for Development. Experiences from National Follow-up to the Commission on Macroeconomics and Health / World Health Organization:Since the 2001 Report of the Commission on Macroeconomics and Health, a number of countries have set up multisectoral national commissions or similar bodies to review options, formulate a plan, and make detailed estimates of the costs of scaling up health investments and expanding access to essential health services. This report presents country experiences in developing and shaping work to address long-term planning for the health sector. It identifies areas of action to which the national commissions have contributed, from mobilizing political will and building much-needed evidence, to strengthening national planning processes. These lay the groundwork for sustainable improvements in health for the world's poor people. The report clarifies the most intractable challenges that have impeded faster health progress, and gives concrete examples of how countries have started to address them through an integrated approach to health sector development and financing. This experience will be integrated into the core work of WHO, across the organization. It will contribute to global health and development discussions and help to guide the way forward for national policy-makers and development partners.

Review Shaping Strategic Change: Making Change in Large Organizations: The Case of the National Health Service / SAGE Publications:"This is a scholarly work, extensively documented form cases derived from the NHS. The authors display vast knowledge of organizaitons and their natural resistance to change and the study is done in great detail. An extensive bibliography provides an exhaustive list of leading book and articles. This book is very relevant to the present Indian situation. [+]
This book will provide valuable reading for mangers and policymakers in private and public sector organizations and also for those who are studying strategic change in organizations. " -Management and Labour Studies "The authors provide a balanced overview of a range of different literatures dealing with (elements of) strategic change processes. Shaping Strategic Change covers a broad range of important issues that arise when managers try to affect change. The study by Pettigrew and coauthors contributes to our understanding of how top-driven changes can be successfully implemented in large organizations. It does not provide simple recipes, but recognizes the complexity, indeterminism, and simultaneity of strategic change process. In this respect, the model of receptive and non-receptive contexts offers many interesting and provocative ideas to scholars in this area. " -Organization Studies "The review of the literature is thorough; the case material is fascinating; the issue that the authors come to grips with-effecting change in the National Health Service-is important. The book is worth reading. Researchers and students will find it useful. " -Times Higher Education Supplement "The book is rich in empirical observation and in its range of conceptual references. It presents a worthwhile contribution to understanding strategic change. " -Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management "A thorough exercise that merits close study. " -Long Range Planning In this major new book, Pettigrew, Ferlie, and McKee present their latest work on the processes and management of strategic change. In particular, they develop their model of receptive and non-receptive contexts for change. Both a powerful analytic device and a broad agenda for management, the model addresses the role and impact of such factors as environmental pressures for change, the quality and clarity of change goals and strategies, organizational cultures and inter-organizational relations supportive of change, availability of key people to lead change, and capability in managing change processes-turning "problems and panics" into sustainable action. Underpinning the model is an extraordinarily rich and multilayered analysis which draws and builds on the authors' research in the British National Health Service during a period of dramatic restructuring. Pettigrew and his colleagues use the case material to look at different kinds of strategic change, successful and less successful change processes, and the interconnection of factors to shape effective change. Shaping Strategic Change is indispensable reading for managers in private or public sector organizations and for anyone studying strategic management, organizational change, and public management.

Review Fundamentals for the Assessment of Risks from Environmental Radiation (NATO Science Partnership Sub-Series: 2:) / Springer:Human health, aquatic, and terrestrial ecosystems are all under threat from increasing levels of environmental radiation from a variety of sources, many of them anthropogenic. This book surveys the current state of our knowledge of the fundamental processes that result from the interaction of environmental (both ionizing and UV) with living matter. Current concepts of risk estimation and radiation protection are also considered. The book covers the consequences of radioactive pollution from accidents to nuclear power plant, especially in large areas of the former Soviet Union; the global problem of an increase in the incidence of UVB radiation at the earth's surface due to the depletion of the stratospheric ozone layer; the increase of natural radiation levels in areas of former uranium mining; and the increased levels of natural radiation experienced in air travel and space flight.
