Fifteen to twenty years is how long it takes for the billions of dollars of university-based research to translate into evidence-based policies and programs suitable for public use. Over the past decade, an exciting science has emerged that seeks to narrow the gap between the discovery of new knowledge and its application in public health, mental health, and health care settings. Dissemination and implementation (D&I) research seeks to understand how to best apply scientific advances in the real world, by focusing on pushing the evidence-based knowledge base out into routine use.

To help propel this crucial field forward, leading D&I scholars and researchers have collaborated to put together this volume to address a number of key issues, including: how to evaluate the evidence base on effective interventions; which strategies will produce the greatest impact; how to design an appropriate study; and how to track a set of essential outcomes. D&I studies must also take into account the barriers to uptake of evidence-based interventions in the communities where people live their lives and the social service agencies, hospitals, and clinics where they receive care.

The challenges of moving research to practice and policy are universal, and future progress calls for collaborative partnerships and cross-country research. The fundamental tenet of D&I research-taking what we know about improving health and putting it into practice-must be the highest priority. This book is nothing less than a roadmap that will have broad appeal to researchers and practitioners in epidemiology, biostatistics, behavioral science, economics, medicine, social work, psychology, and anthropology.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This encyclopedic volume covers D&I research from numerous perspectives and disciplines. Its strength is a broad multidisciplinary coverage across a social sciences, epidemiology, research methods, public health, and health services research. It provides an excellent introduction, overview, and in-depth discussion of why research translation and dissemination are important and critical elements in research, and in health services and public health practices for the 21st century." -- Adrian Bauman, PhD, MPH, Sesquicentenary Professor of Public Health, University of Sydney School of Public Health

"This book is just in time, but you will be sorry that you didn't have it years ago. Reading it will inform and transform your idea of what is needed to generate health research that can make a difference. These editors and authors have filled a huge gap in the resources available to understand and teach about dissemination and implementation research in an era where the importance of this type of translational research is gaining support and prominence. The book will be useful to those are already engaged in D&I research, those who are not sure just what D&I research is or why we need it, and everyone in between." -- Shiriki Kumanyika, PhD, MPH, Professor of Epidemiology and Associate Dean for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine

"Few books will fill as great a need asDissemination and Implementation Research in Health. Effective dissemination and implementation should be magic bullets that increase the speed with which discoveries become practice and improve health. This book should be required reading for people from diverse fields who are committed to shorten the time between discovery and widespread practice." -- Barbara K. Rimer, DrPH, MPH, Dean and Alumni Distinguished Professor, UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health

"This book is the first of its kind! I have been searching for a book like this since we received our clinical and translational science award to help explain translational science, why it is necessary, and how it is accomplished. The editors have compiled it in an easy-to-understand way." -- DOODY'S

4.0 out of 5 stars Current state of the art overview

Program Development in the 21st Century: An Evidence-Based Approach to Design, Implementation, and Evaluation I now use this as my course textbook for implementation research courses. It strikes the right balance between overview and detail in each of the chapters and for each shows future directions for the mostly masters and PHDs I teach this subject to.

Limitations are in a US-centric coverage and less interest in qualitative and case study, as well as in ignoring evidence based quality improvement collaborative approaches (eg the ground-breaking work of the VA research centres in LA).

Unlike many textbooks this shows the latest knowledge and thinking - I read it after the 2012 NIH dissemination and implementation conference and all the issues and items addressed there were reflected in this book.

Implementation research has the potential to be a disruptive research approach which establishes effective implementation of proven and promising interventions as creating more value for healthcare than spending resources on the development of new interventions. This and the Palinkas book on the subject set the agenda.

But wheres the kindle version! Students in Sweden don't like going back to carrying last century heavy books like this!
