A marvelous tool. The five 'control knobs'-as well as the illustration of the complex interactions among the technical, ethical and political dimensions of the policy cycle-allowed me to organize my systemic thinking while advancing towards the implementation of effective universal health care in Argentina. -Adolfo Rubinstein, Secretary of Health of Argentina
Rapidly assumed the status of a classic and proved an inspiration to a generation of students and policymakers. It is as relevant today as when it was first published. -Peter C. Smith, Emeritus Professor of Health Policy, Imperial College Business School, London
