Assessing the Quality and Value of Psychological Health Care in Civilian Health Programs
The Military Health System (MHS) strives to provide high-quality care and improve outcomes for individuals with psychological health conditions. Over the last decade, the MHS has provided care to a growing number of individuals with psychological health conditions, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD). However, little is known about the extent to which the MHS delivers care that is consistent with evidence-based clinical practice guidelines or if it is achieving positive outcomes for its service members. To better understand these issues, the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury (DCoE) asked the RAND Corporation to describe civilian health plans' approaches to systematically measuring the quality of psychological health care delivered by providers in their networks. This work was part of a larger effort by RAND to develop a framework and identify a set of measures for monitoring the quality of care provided by the MHS for psychological health conditions.

Changing Times
This is a true account of my childhood and my family seen through my eyes and told as I remember it, in my own words (not always complimentary.) Its about growing up in the North East of Scotland in a small, rural community; how we amused ourselves and used our imaginations to invent play and adventure. It also gives an insight into the hardships we faced and the challenges of keeping up with the progress through which my generation has had the privilege to live.
Philistia by Grant Allen, Fiction, Political
"The little spare wizened-up grey man who stood in the middle of the hall, caught Ernest's hand warmly, and held it fettered in his iron grip. 'Biologists and physicists and mathematicians, those are our best recruits, ' he said. 'The social revolution is not to be accomplished by violence, the victory will be in the end to the clearest brain and the subtlest intellect.' "--from "Philistia."
