Synopsis

This book places care at the centre of an economics of health, showing how essential it is that care is appropriately recognised in policy as a means of enhancing the dignity of the individual. Drawing upon care theory from feminist works, philosophy, nursing and medicine, and political economy, the authors develop a health care economics with a moral basis in health care systems. In providing deeper insights into the nature of care and caring, this book seeks to redress the shortcomings of the standard approach and to contribute to the development of a more person-based approach to health and medical care in economics.
