Comparative Studies and the Politics of Modern Medical Care, edited by Ted Marmor, Richard Freeman and Kieke Okma, discusses recent patterns of health reform in Europe and North America…
This new collection explores recent patterns in health care regulation, financing, and delivery across countries. Wide-ranging essays cover both key countries (Canada, Germany, Holland, the United Kingdom and the United States) and key issues, including primary care, hospital care, long-term care, pharmaceutical policy, and private health insurance. Respective authors pay close attention throughout to the ways in which cross-national, comparative research informs national policy debates across the world.
