Dave Chenoweth has been involved in worksite health proomotion efforts for many years as a teacher, but also a top consultant. He has hit another "home run" with this new book that is organized around a basic worksite model.I have read Dave for many years as a worksite wellness manager and used many of his articles to help build management support for my efforts. He played an important role in giving us the early economic evaluation tools that has ensured our field moved forward, and he continues to provide the ideas, concepts and principles that ensure program success.What has made Dave's work different from other academic writers is that he has always maintained a consultant practice that gives him an opportunity to practice what he teaches. This is a book that should be a part of every worksite wellness professionals library, not just a textbook that gets forgotten.William B. Baun, EPD, FAWHP
