Great workbook by P. S. Mehta (Fairhill, Maryland USA) 5 Stars
June 08, 2009
Dr Carter has created a well organized handbook that should become a professional necessity to both clinicians as well as folks in Information Technology.
The last two thirds of the book is absolutely brilliant. It outlines in a clear workbook like format the process of doing a benefit / cost analysis; going through the selection process; key heuristics in finding the right consulting partner; managing change in the office; dealing with pain of implementation / startup and much more.
Buy this book, skim through the fist 100 or so pages (unless you are a technologist and want to read what a physician has to say about operating systems and data repositories). From page 150 onwards, the book is a must read with every page giving you something to take home.
Well done Dr Carter.

Highly recommended by health informaticists by Hearth (Darnestown, Maryland USA)  4 Stars
April 13, 2005
I just attended the American Medical Informatics Assn. (AMIA)meeting and heard an outstanding presentation by Dr. Carter. Other panel speakers highly recommended his book. If the book is nearly as good as the talk, this will be money well spent.
