I bought this book for a presentation in a graduate level class regarding the role of managed care in the provision of mental health services. This book provided a good starting place for understanding the history of managed mental health care, ethical issues in managed mental health care, and the basic managed health care system in the US. If you want a basic, easy-to-read overview, this is your book. If you already have an understanding of the basics and want a more detailed analysis of managed mental health care, you may use this book as a starting place for your research. For the price, this book is a useful reference.
