1) Paperback Book Management Principles for Health Professionals by Jones and Bartlett Publishers. I use this when I teach the senior level management course in a school of nursing. there will be a new edition in fall 2007.
The typical challenge faced by teachers of this content at this level is that when the stduents are in their very last semester, they need to "keep it real" and stay motivated to learn the content which may seem abstract at times. Most will not be going into management but they do need to know how a manager will think, because each of them will have to deal with a manager very soon. I think this book conveys the material as well as any. Not to fluffy not too in-depth.
Covers the usual "five functions of management" ( staffing, directing, controlling, planning, organizing) and adds chapter four on the topic of decision-making as well. aslo include a description of bureaucratic imperialism, which in my view is a key concept for those seeking a deeper level of ability to predict organizational behavior.
