About the Author

The lead editor and author Robert Hoyt MD FACP is a practicing internal medicine physician who has taught Health Informatics for the past decade and conducted clinical research. He believed that Health Informatics textbooks should be exciting and very current so he opted to put together a strong team of contributors and use publish-on-demand publishing to be sure each edition is published rapidly. He would not have been able to do this without the help of his physician wife Ann Yoshihashi MD.
