"Systems thinking has been applied to many specific health issues, but this book represents the first attempt to apply it to an entire heath system. Furthermore, this book recognises that health systems are open systems that mutually interact with other systems. The Ministry of Health, Malaysia is proud to have participated actively with IIGH-UNU in the analytic process. It has been a highly beneficial mutual learning process. We have gained insights into critical elements in our past development, acquired better appreciation of our own strengths and limitations, and recognised opportunities to address the challenges we face"-- Provided by publisher
