Creating Change in Mental Health Organizations

By George W. Fairweather, David H. Sanders , Louis G. Tornatzky, With Robert N. Harris, Jr.

from the preface: This book presents the results of a national experiment aimed at finding the parameters of social change in mental health organizations. While the experiment involves most mental hospitals in the nation, it is the hope of the experimenters that the groundwork has been laid for innovation util- ization experiments that transcend the mental health area. For it is the firm conviction of the authors that the major survival issue man will have to solve in the latter part of the 20th century and in the 21st century in- volves changing his institutional practices, behaviors, and values in more innovative directions
