Writing to Improve Healthcare by David Stevens

This new book is a 'what and how to' guide to writing for successful scholarly publication in the emerging fields of healthcare improvement and patient safety. While there are many useful authors’ aids for scholarly biomedical publication, none focuses explicitly on these relatively new fields. It offers practical advice that includes preparation and organization of a scholarly healthcare improvement manuscript, where to submit it to find the most likely interested editor and journal, how to take full advantage of coauthors’ working together effectively, and strategies for authors to reach a broader health professions readership.

"Overall, Writing to Improve Healthcare draws a roadmap from health care in-novation to scholarly contribution and offers a practical reference guide along each step of the way"

H Nicole Tran, MD, PhD1; T Stephanie Tran

"The book is unique in that it applies a healthcare improvement perspective to the traditional manu-script preparation and publication process. This is useful for the novice writer and for authors accustomed to writing more traditional clinical research studies or writing for other biomedical fields...We believe that Writing to Improve Healthcare will assist with this imperative and find its place on the bookshelf of QI authors for years to come."
