Publisher's Note This book is the first to offer a model for a comprehensive community-based health practice that can compete effectively in the health care market. Based on a detailed analysis of a "pilot project" of this type, it systematically explores every aspect of operation and presents a cross-section of anecdotal narratives reflecting the experience of those most closely involved in the delivery of services. The authors discuss the potential value of similar local centers in solving our nation's health care dilemmas.
