Abstract
This bibliography lists references to selected publications facilitating cross-national comparisons of health services systems. Originally assembled for a graduate-level seminar, the bibliography grew to its present scope through a series of literature searches, including the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (MEDLARS) search of the National Library of Medicine. Currently, this bibliography presents only English language sources. It consists of an annotated bibliography of selected books, including both national and cross-national studies. Because of limitations imposed by size, selectivity was necessarily exercised in choosing subject areas as well as individual entries within the bibliography. The bibliography will be kept up to date, and in the future it will be expanded to incorporate new publications, non-English sources, and suggestions from readers.
