Recenzii

As ever, my eminent colleague, Cam Donaldson, demonstrates in straightforward language how central economics is to the future of health care in Canada, the UK and internationally. This is economics with a human - and humane - face. Everyone concerned about health care needs to read this book. Professor Anthony J. CulyerOntario Research Chair in Health Policy & System Design, University of Toronto, Canada; and Professor of Economics, University of York, England.

Cam Donaldson is an excellent provocative economics writer who can tell it like it is and engage people in the big issues of the day. This book is open to everyone but does not simplify the complex world that we face. Anyone who pays for or manages health services will benefit from this book, including every clinician and every citizen. Sir Muir Gray, CBE, Co-Director, NHS QIPP Programme
