ABSTRACT

Improving programs and organizations designed to prevent and/or ameliorate social, health, educational, community, and organizational problems that threaten the well-being of people from all segments of our global community is the pursuit at hand. More specifically, this book explores applications of how evaluation science can be used to develop and improve programs and organizations dedicated to promoting health, well-being, human productivity, and achievement. Given that we live in a time of unprecedented change, uncertainty, and human suffering, this book will indeed be exploring the application and potential of a very useful, powerful, and critically important human-designed tool.
