This important new textbook provides comparative and critical analysis of health care policy from high-income countries in Europe to low-income developing countries in the Global South.
It integrates conceptual themes drawn from the fields of sociology, policy analysis, and political science to offer a unique combination of theory, historical background, and wider social commentary. The book is divided into three sections:
Section I establishes the conceptual basis for the analysis of the health policymaking process, including implementation. Section II provides an introduction to the key elements of conducting a comparative health system’s analysis, including chapters that provide examples of performance analysis in both high- and low-income developing countries. Section III examines key challenges now facing health policy-makers that include long-term social care provision, widening the scope of public health to address social inequalities in health outcome, the integration of genomic medicine within a health care system, and the establishment of an effective national pharmaceutical policy.Each chapter includes case studies, historical-institutional contexts, and summaries of key health policies. Detailed and clearly written, it is the ideal text for health and social science students in this expanding area of analysis.

The book is divided into four sections:
-Section One establishes a theoretical basis for the analysis of contemporary health policy.
-Section Two examines the key constituents of health care 'systems', which includes a comparative analysis of EU member states.
-Section Three focuses on contemporary health care policy and provision in the UK.
-Section Four assesses the increasingly limited ability of national governments to reduce threats to the health of their populations.
Written in an accessible style, the student-friendly approach highlights key concepts and includes introductions, summaries and examples of further reading. Each chapter also includes case studies and activities which encourage the reader to think about the planning, implementation and assessment of specific healthcare policies.
This is a timely and authoritative textbook that covers a key topic of the curriculum while also contributing to topical debates. The book will be essential reading for healthcare and social science students taking modules in health policy, and will also be of interest to policy makers and practitioners in the field of healthcare.
