Health Planning for Effective Management

Extending the ideas presented in Health Planning: Qualitative Aspects and Quantitative Techniques (1972), this book looks at practical aspects of implementing primary health care programmes. The book's three sections cover: the policy issues and conceptual framework for planning, implementation, and evaluation; planning methods; and tools and techniques in programme management.
Aimed at public health students and administrators, the book emphasizes the difficult task of providing essential health services to scattered rural populations, in developing countries with limited resources.
