Institutional Change and Healthcare Organizations: From Professional Dominance to Managed Care
by W. Richard Scott, Martin Ruef, Peter J. Mendel, and Carol A. Caronna

This book provides a number of novel concepts, tools and techniques that are helpful in studying institutional changes and associated roles of new governance structures, new logics, new actors and ever changing relationships among them. The ideas proposed in the book helped me understand, explain, evaluate, theorize and predict formal and informal institutional changes undergoing in and associated with a number of newly emerging industries.
