Description

This second edition of the 1993 bestseller that established the concepts of disease burden and cost-effectiveness as important inputs to health policy in developing countries continues the effort to support evidence-based decision making in public health. It presents updated and improved information on disease burden and cost-effectiveness by disease or risk category. It also addresses health system institutions, policy instruments, and cross-cutting themes such as women's health, population aging, and health care finances.
