Health Policy Reform

Health Policy Reform: Driving the Wrong Way? addresses the dramatic changes that have been taking place within the world's healthcare systems since the early 1990s. It questions whether these major 'reforms' are driven primarily by the health needs of the wider population or, in fact, by non-health considerations - the financial and political concerns of governments and global institutions.

This major new study fills a gap in the literature covering the recent history of healthcare provision and is unique in its global scope. It presents the key issues facing health professionals today and is aimed at medics and administrators alike. The book's use of a common analytical framework produces a consistent critical analysis of different situations in different countries, making its approach wholly unlike that of previous, less comprehensive studies.
