Health economics is about making wise investments in health and health care. The purpose of this book is to make readers familiar with the principles, methods and pitfalls of health economic evaluations. These evaluations help to make choices and set priorities in favour of those investments (for prevention, diagnosis, cure or care) that give the greatest return on health for money spent.

In onze economie wordt het onttrekken van waarde – het toe-eigenen van winsten, zoals dividenden voor aandeelhouders en bonussen voor bankiers – beter beloond dan het scheppen van waarde: de motor van een gezonde economie en samenleving. Als we ons verziekte kapitalische systeem radicaal willen veranderen, moeten we nadenken over waar onze welvaart vandaan komt.

There are many different forms of rationality. In current economic discourse the main focus is on instrumental rationality and optimizing, while organization scholars, behavioural economists and policy scientists focus more on bounded rationality and satisficing. The interplay with value rationality or expressive rationality is mainly discussed in philosophy and sociology, but never in an empirical way.

This book shows that not one, but three different forms of rationality (subjective, social...

Remorseless financial crises. Extreme inequalities in wealth. Relentless pressure on the environment. Anyone can see that our economic system is broken. But can it be fixed?In Doughnut Economics, Oxford academic Kate Raworth identifies the seven critical ways in which mainstream economics has led us astray - from selling us the myth of 'rational economic man' to obsessing over growth at all costs - and offers instead an alternative roadmap for bringing humanity into a sweet spot that meets th...
