Thanks to the lack of economic jargon and lesser reliance on quantitative methods, this work is accessible to a wide readership ranging from undergraduate students to researchers interested in international health and poverty reduction. It is required reading for policy makers and practitioners looking for innovative measures in health financing and service delivery that can better reach the poor. -- M. Q. Dao, Choice, 2008
