Health Economics

Great textbook. Well laid out and easy to follow. I read ahead before any lectures and while I'm very lucky to have a great professor anytime they teach topics from the book I already have a full grasp from the text due to its useful easy to follow nature.

This textbook breaks down all kinds of the healthcare system we have in the states, and it is easy to understand. A+, but you have to read it and focus.

Great condition for the price!

Very organized and easy reading book. I'm enjoying it a lot. It's very helpful.

Textbook was delivered as expected

Thanks for this wonderful text. While it is due to UPS today, it is Sunday. They are not open until May 29, 2018. I plan to return it then. I apologize. Thanks for understanding.

Very worth it

Normally reviews aren't necessary for school textbooks. They're required. You're buying this whether you want to or not. However, I feel I need to take a moment and record how awful this book is. It's sexist, unhelpful, and is written as if the authors are talking down to a reader. You can't even complete the exercises after reading the chapters, and the book provides no answers if you were to try. I learned nothing from this text, except that women are smart and healthy and men are sick and stupid. These are stereotypes texts can easily avoid. Instead, this text sought out those stereotypes, going out of its way to reinforce them. Textbooks should put readers to sleep at worst, not actively insult them. And to be clear, this isn't about the fact that women live longer. This complaint concerns that every single example in the text that concerns a sickly individual uses a male pronoun, and every example in the text that concerns a healthy individual uses a female pronoun. The sexism grows from there. Textbooks have to try to be this poor. In that regard, and that regard alone, this one succeeded. If you're about to take a class that requires this textbook, reconsider your life trajectory. Something is going wrong. Also, and this is petty, but the comics made for this textbook are probably the worst I've ever seen. The art is so poor it's not even funny. My dog could do better.

This is a useful postgrad book for understanding Health Economics. My disappointment is that the book advertises answers to some of the text book questions are available online but unfortunately the answers aren't available anymore, even on an archived public Google drive link from the publisher. I believe the problem is the publisher has merged with two other houses, and so perhaps they no longer want to maintain answers for all the books online. It's really disappointing though. The original publishing house can provide a Google Drive link to solutions from their other text books but Health Economics isn't even on this list.

The content is complete and rich, with little technical difficulty. It is suitable for beginners

Very Good Book used by many leading health economist -- and I mean economists. It is really simple and well organized. I recommend it!
