Abstract
  • This book explains - in simple and clear language - the value and use of statistical information as an important management tool. The author shows how the content, organisation and presentation of data can illuminate the goals which an authority sets itself and the way it intends to achieve them. The examples in the text are intended to demonstrate both the potentialities and the limitations of statistics and will find an echo in the problems encountered by all those concerned with the planning and delivery of health care. The book will be of interest to health authority members, CHCs, budget holders of all disciplines and anyone who wishes to evaluate the arguments of health care providers and decide for himself on their validity.
