★★★ 3-Star Review
"This book is a nice small introduction to the varied ways that family partnerships can impact individual patient care as well as population health and larger systems. No similar books were easily found. It is clear the book is attempting to reach out beyond the routine audience of the journal Pediatrics. The concepts described will easily stimulate ideas for providers in their own situations."
