As in his earlier writings, Fuchs repeatedly asks interesting and
thoughtful questions and presents information and analyses that are
important for understanding current health policy issues...[His]
wisdom and sagacity shine through at every point.
*Health Affairs*
A book on health policy by one of the founders of the field of
health economics could hardly be more timely...This book is an
example of the important contributions economics can make to the
policy debate.
*Journal of Economic Literature*
Victor Fuchs has been a prolific and thorough analyst of health
policy in the USA. This book, which brings together a series of
updated and revised papers that have been published previously in
medical and economics journals, continues this tradition and offers
stimulation and intelligence in conceptual, empirical, and policy
areas...The Future of Health Policy is written lucidly, in a
non-technical way, and offers much stimulation to clinicians and
economists alike. Those in government should read it and learn how
'markets' in health care do not really work.
*The Lancet*
Provocative...Victor Fuchs has long been a leading author on health
policy...In The Future of Health Policy he provides a scholarly
