Economic Analysis in Health Care by Stephen Morris, Nancy Devlin and David Parkin (2007)

Be the first to read this new book by three leaders in the field of health economics. "Economic Analysis in Health Care" provides a comprehensive coverage of both the economics of health care systems and the evaluation of health care technologies. It has been written as a core textbook for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students with knowledge of economic analysis and will appeal to an international audience. It adopts an international perspective, using examples and case studies from the UK, the rest of Europe, and other countries. It contains detailed exposition of the economic theory alongside relevant examples and applications. It focuses on both market-related and economic evaluation aspects of health economics (some books focus purely on market-related aspects). It is contributed by a strong author team with very broad experience of writing and teaching health economics. (Review courtesy of Blackwell.co.uk).
