Recenzii

'This book provides an illuminating account of the key issues facing healthcare workforce governance in the 21st century. It makes an important call for a more evidence based approach, and is itself a major contribution to the evidence base from many different perspectives and disciplines.' Anna van der Gaag, President, Health Professions Council 'Never before have I come across a volume of collected works which addresses health workforce governance issues from ethical international recruitment to the challenges of the "regulatory trinity" in such a comprehensive and engaging manner. It is a must read for health workforce policy and planning decision-makers and knowledge users.' Ivy Lynn Bourgeault, University of Ottawa, Canada
