Hi Fellows: Many of you will remember John W. Seavey, Ph.D., MPH, presenter of the elegant session on American policy making and the structure of government, Policy, Politics and Values, for many generations of HPF Fellows at Orientation. Dr. Seavey has published a book on the policy analysis process: Health Policy Analysis Framework John Seavey, MPH, PhD Semra Aytur, PhD, MPH Robert Mc Grath, PhD Pub. Date: 5/2014 234 pp., Softcover $65.00 ISBN-13: 9780826119230 This is the only resource to provide a step-by-step framework and expert guidance for preparing a health policy analysis final paper or a capstone project for courses in health policy, public health, and health policy analysis. Building on a blend of theory and practical considerations for creating a successful policy analysis, the text guides students through the process of building an analysis that encompasses value orientations, policy background, issue statement, normative and stakeholder analysis, criteria for success, systematic review of policy options, recommendation, and strategy for adoption. To exemplify the process of creating a health policy analysis paper, the text traces the development of a policy on childhood obesity, the framework of which is directly applicable to a broad spectrum of policy analysis projects. The book is written by authors who are connected nationally to relevant groups (e.g., AUPHA, APHA, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and environmental health policy groups), and have extensive networks in practice and academia where they first noted, and then fulfilled, a pressing need for a guide to preparing policy analysis final papers.
