He has previously taught at the Department of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge, trained in public health in the Oxford Region, gained an MSc in Community Medicine at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and conducted research at Templeton College, Oxford. His recent research has examined the use of medical knowledge in the delivery of health services, including a study of communities of practice in the design of care for the elderly, an ethnographic study of knowledge management in primary care, a qualitative study of GP and patient views on depression, and an evaluation of the development of Diagnosis and Treatment Centres. Klappentext Health services can and should be improved by applying research findings about best practice. Yet, in Knowledge to Action?, the authors explore why it nevertheless proves notoriously difficult to implement change based on research evidence in the face of strong professional views and complex organizational structures. The book draws on a large body of evidence acquired in the course of nearly fifty in-depth case studies, following attempts to introduce evidence-based practice in the UK NHS over more than a decade. Using qualitative methods to study hospital and primary care settings, they are able to shed light on why some of these attempts succeeded where others faltered. By opening up the intricacies and complexities of change in the NHS, they reveal the limitations of the simplistic approaches toimplementing research or introducing evidence-based health care.
