This edition features an expanded introduction, a new section on applied econometrics, more discussion of how the need for healthcare and access to healthcare are defined and measured, and a vastly revised and updated section on the profile and structure of different healthcare systems.

Throughout the text, examples and illustrations are taken from a wide range of settings and world regions, providing a unique overview of the performance of different health systems.
