Emphasizing the role of disclosure, the book details rigorous methods of measurement, analysis, and communication. The responsibilities of both providers and recipients are discussed, with an eye toward performance improvement. Case studies root the theoretical perspectives in the practice and experience of functioning institutions. Kazandijan teaches public health at Johns Hopkins University.
