"As a student and teacher myself of organisational management, leadership, networks and integrated care this book is going to be placed conveniently close as a handy source of reference - perhaps it may even slip into my pocket." International Journal of Integrated Care, Vol 8, 2008 "At last! Here is a rich source of well-evidenced ideas about how leadership can affect the outcomes of partnerships. A contribution to academic thinking, and a practical stimulus for the manager."
