Bruce Jansson’s
thoughtful and innovative book will appeal to students in social
work, nursing, and public health as well as those working in the
health field of practice. The case examples are extraordinary, and
Jansson provides the ideas, context, and theoretical base for
readers to acquire the skills of advocacy in healthcare. This is by
far the best advocacy book I have seen.

Improving Healthcare Through Advocacy is a terrific description of opportunities for advocacy intervention and provides the skill sets necessary for effective advocacy. A needed book.

Improving Healthcare Through Advocacy is an invaluable resource for practitioners working in the healthcare field as well as for students. It very thoroughly covers healthcare advocacy issues, contains real-world case examples, and provides a clear, step-by-step framework for practicing advocacy.
