Abstract "Braithwaite and his coauthors, of Morehouse Medical School, describe the collaboration between community organizations and university faculty essential to public health and reliable research.

Through case studies, exploratory research, surveys, and interventions, they provide lessons for advancing participatory research and promoting community health"-- Provided by publisher.
