Patients have always been encouraged to be active participants in managing their health.

New technologies, cultural shifts, trends in healthcare delivery, and policies have brought the patients' role in healthcare to the forefront.

It presents practical recommendations and case studies useful for researchers and practitioners.

It covers diverse healthcare settings outside of hospitals and clinics, and provides a combination of foundational content and specific applications in detail. The 2-volume set will be ideal for academics working in healthcare and patient-centered research, their students, human factors practitioners (consultants, employees of health systems and technology/medical device compaines), healthcare professionals (physicians, nurses, pharmacists), and organizational leaders (healthcare administrators and executives).
