Product Description
by Lok-Sang Ho (Author)
This book offers both a theoretical treatment of health policy as well as practical assessment of various healthcare reform proposals and healthcare systems in different countries. It begins with a distinction between functional health and the stock of health and their determinants, and offers an intuitively appealing framework to understand their determinants under conditions of uncertainty.
