"Throughout his distinguished career in public policy, academia, and philanthropy, Daniel Fox has epitomized the concept of convergence. In his new book, "The Convergence of Science and Governance," he provides a living, engrossing case study of visionary policymakers who connected with savvy researchers to change the face of pharmaceutical policy and practice in the United States. In the process, he provides compelling histories of health services research and state health policy over the past 100 years. His smart and pragmatic optimism always shine through."--John E. McDonough, author of "Experiencing Politics" "Built on a scaffolding of personal experience and historical analysis, Fox's important study provides us with an understanding of how policy analysis has emerged as a powerful force in shaping our health system. This is a refreshing book that is written to alert us to both the value of health services research and the forces that threaten its integrity."--David Rosner, author of "Are We Ready? Public Health Since 9/11" "Dan Fox's razor sharp observational and analytical skills are on full display in his latest book. His story--compellingly told--chronicles how state leaders have fulfilled their charge to be "laboratories of change" by showing how to use research to inform public policy decision. It is an example federal policy makers should emulate as they attempt to reform our badly broken health care system."--John A. Kitzhaber, M.D. and Governor of Oregon 1995-2003
