Exploring ways to improve health system performance in developing countries

Abstract

This lively collection of articles investigating the challenges faced by health systems in developing countries is a welcome addition to the current health literature. Writing from a non-technical perspective, the authors strike a balance between deterring the general reader with excessive technical jargon and being too elementary to interest specialists. The book will thus appeal to a broad readership of health care professionals, researchers, advisors, students, and those outside the health profession involved in trade policy, economics, public policy and development.
