This is an academic text, originally commissioned by the Department of Health from University College London and University of Surrey, using a variety of research methods. The results of the review are discussed in detail in separate chapters covering particular innovations and the relevant contexts. The book is intended as a resource for health care researchers and academics. 606 $aMedical care$xQuality control 606 $aHealth services administration$xQuality control 606 $aDiffusion of innovations 606 $aMedical care$xResearch$xMethodology 615 0$aMedical care$xQuality control. 615 0$aHealth services administration$xQuality control. 615 0$aDiffusion of innovations. 615 0$aMedical care$xResearch$xMethodology. 676 $a362.1/068/5 701 $aGreenhalgh$b Trisha$0457133 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996205986903316 996 $aDiffusion of innovations in health service organisations$92238655 997 $aUNISA
