520 _aDescribed as the best book in its field, this extensively updated third edition of Making Health Policy provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of health policy, its political nature and its processes at country and global levels. Written by a large and diverse group of leading experts, this clear and accessible book addresses the "how" of health policy making in a range of settings. This fully revised edition: • Responds to the movement to 'decolonise' and broaden the practice of global health and its related scholarship • Provides new examples of health policy processes that bring additional theoretical perspectives and empirical studies from researchers outside North America and Europe • Responds to developments in health policy such as the ecological crisis, the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic and the role of social media as well as having greater treatment of policy related to the social and commercial determinants of health • Includes new chapters on the role of the values that underpin health policy debates and on how local policy is shaped by national, regional and global influences and organisations. -- Provided by publisher.
520 _a"Part of the Understanding Public Health series, this newly revised edition of Making Health Policy has been updated to cover and aid the analysis of significant political and health policy developments since the publication of the second edition in 2012. The new edition includes a greater diversity of expertise and perspectives and reflects the latest research and thinking about how to do health policy analysis, including a new focus on issues such as the role of values in health policy, policy making in response to climatic and environmental change, and the growing importance of social media in the policy process. The new edition also draws on the COVID-19 pandemic and its response to highlight key aspects of the health policy process. The book, nonetheless, maintains the strengths of earlier editions that have made it popular with students, practitioners, policy makers, and teachers of health policy through its accessible style, comprehensive nature, use of empirical case studies from low- to high-income countries and range of learning resources"-- Worldcat.
