Publisher Synopsis
"Kellogg's vivid account of the struggle to implement important medical reform instructs, inspires, and terrifies. Unique in its range of arguments and the literature it draws on, Challenging Operations is a wonderful book for students of the sociology of medicine, health and illness, occupations, organizations, work, and social movements." (Carol Heimer, Northwestern University)" Read more...
