Emergency Psychiatry
The content of the book is fair to good, but the writing is VERY uneven.
(Stands to reason as the chapters were written by a variety of authors - it's too bad some of them are clearly not actually writers.)
Also, wouldn't you think an editor would be a good idea?
Check out some lovely examples of how not to open your chapter:
"To manage successfully a managed care organization or payer organization, the value financial managers provide their organizations starts with their ability to interact with the operational and medical managers, to manage changes in the regulatory environment, and gather timely information to facilitate communication of financial results to the organization and its constituencies to react appropriately to sustain or exceed financial goals...
The focus of this chapter is a review of the components of the financial statements of a payer, key information and the operational procedures that the financial manager will need and rely upon, addresses typical problems that occur in gathering information and provides insight into the challenge of the integrity of information."
