Product Description
Review
"Anyone who has ever written or uttered the words 'evidence-based policy' should read this outstanding book. So should anyone else who has hopes for increasing the rationality of policy or practice through reference to systematic inquiry. The volume unpacks the meanings and assumptions embedded in 'evidence-based policy', illustrates its successes and shortfalls, looks at alternative perspectives on the junction of research and practice, and suggests documented ways to improve the engagement of research with policy and practice. This sophisticated book will challenge some current beliefs and offer better grounded and more realistic aspirations." --Carol H. Weiss, Beatrice B. Whiting Professor Emerita, Harvard Graduate School of Education, US
Thomas G. Rundall, Henry J. Kaiser Professor of Organized Health Systems, U.C. Berkeley
"This book is a major contribution to the literature: clear,
thoughtful, relevant and evidence-informed. My first bit of advice for the
Academy of Management here in the US is for everyone to read your book."
