INNOVATION AND HEALTH: THEORY, METHODOLOGY AND APPLICATIONS

Book ID/图书代码： 04289511B47955

English Summary/英文概要： Innovation and Health investigates both the origin and the diffusion of novelty in the field of health. It also provides a critical discussion of the methodology and theory of health economics.

Neoclassical and evolutionary elements are combined to produce a comprehensive view of the commodity of ‘health’ beyond a pure ‘market’ perspective. Thus, the intangible dimension of health is taken into account. The methodological framework developed serves as a basis for several theoretical and empirical applications such as the creation of medical knowledge, the evolution of networks and the process of invention, innovation and diffusion in the health care sector.

This timely resource will appeal to researchers and students working in health, innovation and evolutionary economics, as well as economic methodology. It will also appeal to health policy makers with an interest in market competition and social well-being.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书探索了健康领域创新的起源和传播。同时还对健康经济学的方法与理论进行了一次批判性讨论。结合新古典和渐进发展的原理，产生了对于“健康”商品的综合考察观，而不纯粹是站在市场的角度，因此，健康的无形性便成为了值得考虑的问题，方法构架随之发展成为一些理论和实证应用的基础，包括医理的产生、网络的演变以及卫生保健部门的发明、革新和传播。

这部作品，恰逢其时得解决了研究人员和学生（健康、进化经济学和经济学方法等学科）在此方面的知识诉求，同时对于对市场竞争和社会福利感兴趣的卫生政策制定者来说，本书也具有很强的吸引力。(兼职翻译FSF)
