- 2 Want to read
"In this classic book, Professor Vicor Fuchs, draws on his deep understanding of the strengths and limitations of economics and his intimate knowledge of health care institutions to help readers understand the problem every nation faces in trying to allocate health resources efficiently and equitably. In a new introduction to the second expanded edition, Professor Fuchs examines the major changes in health, medical care, and U.S. health policy of the past four decades. Nine of his more recent papers dealing with poverty and health, aging, the socio-economic correlates of health, the future of health economics, and his recommendations for health care reform accompany the original 1974 text. --- Health professionals, policy-makers, social scientists, students, and concerned citizens will all benefit from this highly readable, authoritative, and nuanced discussion of difficult choices that lie ahead." --- from inside book
