According to Jill Shuman, director of the Will Solimene Awards program,
“Helen’s book was selected from among the many outstanding entries submitted to this year’s competition. The Will Solimene Awards and Neil Duane Awards are presented biennially for print and electronic entries that represent excellence in overall biomedical communication, as judged by a panel of experienced and award-winning writers and editors. Health Literacy From A to Z, Second Edition was initially one of 18 winners selected for the Association's Will Solimene Award and was later selected from that elite group to win a Neil Duane Award.”
