Health Economics For Nurses
First published in 1998. In recent years there has been a growing interest in the application of economics to the health care sector. Increasingly, attention is being given to the role of health economics for nurses, as efficient and cost-effective use of resources is seen to be necessary for the provision of a high-quality nursing service. Moreover, as the number of nursing degrees and diplomas increases, the incorporation of formal tuition in health economics and related issues in the training of nurses is becoming more common. This book is specifically designed for and aimed at nurses and will provide a foundation upon which teaching of the economic concepts relevant to the National Health Service in general and the nursing profession in particular can be based.
Communities of Influence
Dedicated and hard-working staff at all levels of large healthcare organisations can be frustrated by a perceived inability to influence healthcare priorities. One way of enabling such practitioners to shape and improve services is to bring them together in 'communities of influence'.

Clinical Leadership Development
This book has been stimulated by the author's continuing work as a programme tutor on the national Medical Leadership development programmes run through the Centre for Health Planning & Management at the University of Keele, together with three years part-time working with the Centre for the Development of Healthcare Policy & Practice at the University of Leeds. The experience of working with colleagues in these settings, together with his own consultancy work, has convinced the author of the centrality of clinical leadership to the success of health care organisations - and therefore also of the need to develop that leadership. While aware that much excellent work was going on, it was also clear that this emerging good practice needed to be brought together into a single publication which captured the innovation and challenge in as comprehensive a way as possible. This book is for leaders at all levels in the NHS, spanning board and executive levels to directorate, network and front line leadership roles. It is also of value to those involved in leadership development, education and research.
