Health Policy And High-tech Industrial Development: Learning From Innovation In The Health Industry

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionMany countries and regions are actively promoting high technology industries as a means of stimulating the economy. The authors point out that these efforts are not only encouraging economic development, but they also reduce an economy?s vulnerability to the negative consequences of world trade. By weaving together the fields of health economics, industrial organization and industrial development, this book describes the benefits of promoting a country?s health industry as a way of stimulating its high-technology industrial capacity. The authors illustrate that the development of a country?s health industry not only improves the country?s health status, but also promotes an industry with relatively stable, high wageemployment, creates the potential for exporting goods and services, and produces scientific spillovers that will favorably impact other high-technology industries. Health Policy and High-Tech Industrial Development will be of great… [detailed...]

Health Promotion Evaluation Practices in the Americas: Values and Research

2008 y.

Description: More and more, health promotion is a crucial component of public health, to the extent that public health interventions are called on to prove their effectiveness and appraised for scientific validity, a practice many in the field consider self-defeating.

The book’s examples—representing robust theoretical and practical literatures as well as initiatives from Rio de Janeiro to American Indian communities—explain why health promotion evaluation projects require different guidelines from mainstream evaluative work.
