" Wellness vs. Illness is a broad-based examination of the delivery of health care. The book analyzes large areas of the healthcare system and the various effects these areas have on the patients who use them. Students learn how health care affects them, their communities, and the country, with the selected articles serving as a background for discussion. They become familiar with key healthcare terms, and gain a strong sense of the big picture of health care in the United States. Topics covered in the text include hospital origins and organization, health information technology, medical education, ambulatory care, and the healthcare workforce. Students will also study healthcare finance, long-term care, mental and public health, and the latest in healthcare advances. Wellness vs. Illness is well-suited to introductory classes for healthcare students who have little prior knowledge of the healthcare system. It can also be used in survey courses for non-majors with a general interest in the field. Frank Ward, Ed.D. , is the Chair of Health Services in the College of Nursing and Health Professions at the University of Southern Indiana. Dr. Ward's research and scholarship focus on instructional technologies, healthcare management, problem-based learning, and student research.

Currently, Dr. Ward is researching ways to improve the internship process for health service students in order to better facilitate matriculation into area hospitals and other healthcare-based organizations."
