New Book Release by RJG Arnold: Pharmacoeconomics: From Theory to Practice
January 14, 2021
An understanding of the basic principles of pharmacoeconomics is essential if stakeholders in the healthcare arena hope to meet the burgeoning challenges posed by shrinking budgets, healthcare rationing, medication shortages, and an aging global population. The 2nd edition of Pharmacoeconomics: From Theory to Practice, edited by Renée J.G. Arnold, focuses on how these basic principles can be correctly applied to facilitation of drug development, rationing, patient segmentation, disease management, and pricing model development. Hailed by Professor Michael Drummond of University of York as an “excellent introduction for those new to the field”, the concepts presented in this updated volume will equip decision makers with the tools necessary to leverage resources more rationally and efficiently, thereby avoiding the need to restrict access to necessary services.
This new edition provides an excellent introduction to the rapidly evolving methods and application of pharmacoeconomics and makes an ideal reference for students, pharma industry professionals, and other health care professionals.
