Review

"After a quick run through, I am convinced that you have a real winner here. It is certainly an attractively printed book with excellent illustrations and contrasting print to highlight different sections. The scope of the topics covered and the issues of concern are impressive. After reading some of the chapters that I was particularly interested in, I was impressed with how well they were covered for a novice (student starting out in the subject). If such a student wants to learn more there are citations that they can read in more detail. If I were teaching Health Policy and Administration 101, I would definitely assign this book as required reading. I am sure this book will become the preeminent textbook for such a course. Congratulations on a job well done." -Stanley P. Mayers, Jr, MD, MPH, FAPHA, FACPM Professor Emeritus of Health Policy & Administration, Penn State University and Former Chairman, Department of Health Policy & Administration

In 1998 he wrote The Steroids Game which focuses on prevention, education, and intervention regarding AS use by adolescents.

This experience served as the foundation of this text.
