Summary

In the months I was writing this book, the COVID-19 epidemic broke out. The measures taken in various countries to tackle the spread of the coronavirus have brought health systems, and the professionals who are part of them, back into the spotlight. The pandemic has confirmed what we are all aware of, but which we often tend to take for granted, and that is how very important the organization of healthcare services is.
