ReviewsFrom the reviews of the second edition: "The author has three objectives: to provide a technical resource about CDSS for information specialists; a textbook for students in medical informatics programs, and a resource for clinicians interested in CDSS. ... the citations are very helpful and serve almost as a recommended reading list for the topic. This book is especially well suited for students in health informatics who are interested in designing and developing clinical decision support systems. It provides an excellent overview with suitable references for continued learning." (Keri L.

SynopsisThis series is directed to healthcare professionals who are leading the tra- formation of health care by using information and knowledge.Launched in 1988 as Computers in Health Care, the series offers a broad range of titles: some addressed to speci'c professions such as nursing,medicine,and health administration; others to special areas of practice such as trauma and ra- ology. Still other books in the series focus on interdisciplinary issues, such as the computer-based patient record, electronic health records, and n- worked healthcare systems. Renamed Health Informatics in 1998,to re'ect the rapid evolution in the discipline now known as health informatics, the series will continue to add titles that contribute to the evolution of the ?eld. In the series, eminent experts,serving as editors or authors, offer their accounts of innovations in health informatics. Increasingly these accounts go beyond hardware and software to address the role of information in in'uencing the transfor- tion of healthcare delivery systems around the world.The series also will increasingly focus on "peopleware" and organizational, behavioral, and societal changes that accompany the diffusion of information technology in health services environments., This is a resource book on clinical decision support systems for informatics specialists, a textbook for teachers or students in health informatics and a comprehensive introduction for clinicians. It has become obvious that, in addition to physicians, other health professionals have need of decision support. Therefore, the issues raised in this book apply to a broad range of clinicians. The book includes chapters written by internationally recognized experts on the design, evaluation and application of these systems, who examine the impact of computer-based diagnostic tools both from the practitioner s perspective and that of the patient.", This is a resource book on clinical decision support systems for informatics specialists, a textbook for teachers or students in health informatics and a comprehensive introduction for clinicians.
