| Abstract
|
:
|
"By weaving together the fields of health economics, industrial organisation and industrial development, this book describes the benefits of promoting a country's health industry as a way of stimulating its high-technology industrial capacity." "Health Policy and High-Tech Industrial Development will be of great interest to health policy analysts by showing that health policies have broader implications than merely affecting health systems. Development and industrial economists and policymakers will also see the health sector from this different and innovative perspective."--Jacket.
