"This insightful and practical work should be required reading formanagers, physicians, nurses, allied health caregivers, and supportstaff, in order to overcome barriers to communication and change indealing with an increasingly complex patient and employee base. Ihighly Andorse this excellent book written by these outstandingauthors." (Donald R. Oxley, vice president and executive director,Kaiser Permanente) "A superb and complete reference guide on cultural diversity. Thisbook provides insight into why health care providers do not reachtheir potential in differentiating themselves in the health caremarketplace. Should be read by all health care providers--a side ofhealth care that is all too often forgotten." (James T. Yoshioka,president, MedCenters Division) "Managing Diversity in Health Care tackles a difficult topic thatcan no longer be considered optional for any health careprofessional. The authors have done an excellent job balancingtheory, facts, and statistics with an understanding of the'cultural software' we all possess. This book forces us, as healthcare professionals, to question the assumptions we have about ourpatients and offers concrete suggestions and resources for fightingagainst stereotypes in our work." (Kathryn Johnson, CEO, TheHealthcare Forum)
