From the Book Review Editor

Abstract

THE PLEASING ASPECT of this book is that it goes much broader than the title implies. The opening statement sums up the text nicely: ?Every management decision has financial implications ? every financial decision has management implications!? The book looks broadly at health management and its link to financial viability. Subject areas include excellent chapters and sections on leadership and organisational strategy, ethics in nursing administration, information systems, budgeting principles and strategies, finance and accounting issues, and determining and evaluating staff. The editors have included useful definition boxes, case studies and web links.
