"In a small village outside Phnom Penh, children as young as five are bought and sold as sex slaves. Day after day their abuse continues, and their hope slips away." "In Terrify No More an international team of investigators goes undercover to infiltrate this ring of brothels and gather evidence needed to free these girls. Meanwhile, skilled legal minds race the clock, working at the highest levels of U.S. and foreign governments to bring the perpetrators to justice. Headed up by former U.N. war-crimes investigator, Gary Haugen, the team perseveres against impossible obstacles - police corruption, death threats and mission-thwarting tip-offs - in a mission focused on bringing freedom to the victims" -- BOOK JACKET.

"Drawing on an eclectic array of research and evaluative studies selected from a mix of sources. Hospital Performance in Brazil: The Search for Excellence analyzes Brazilian hospital performance along several policy dimensions, including resource allocation and use, payment mechanisms, organizational and governmental arrangements, management practices, and regulation and quality." "Although a few Brazilian hospitals are world-class centers of excellence, many hospitals, including those who serve Brazil's poorest people, are low performers. Yet the Brazilian hospital system is both dynamic and pluralistic, and herein lies it strength. As is shown throughout the book, the foundations for change - approaches, ideas, innovations, and initiatives for addressing the shortcomings of underperforming facilities - are already present throughout the country's hospital system. Building on these strengths, the authors propose a policy - and practice-based hospital reform agenda that should assist policy makers and practitioners in their "search for excellence.""--book jacket.
