Smoking poses a significant threat to global health, yet the economics of tobacco control remains a contentious topic, particularly regarding the costs and impacts of various policies. This book addresses this analytical gap by presenting critical reviews of current knowledge on tobacco control, primarily focusing on low- and middle-income countries while maintaining global relevance. It explores the consequences of tobacco use, including welfare issues, poverty, and the rationale for government intervention. The evidence-based review covers demand-reduction strategies such as taxation, information dissemination, and regulation, alongside a critical examination of supply-side challenges, including trade, industry, and farming, with new insights into smuggling. Additionally, it assesses the economic implications of tobacco control programs, touching on employment, tax revenue, and welfare losses. The book also presents fresh evidence on the effectiveness of international actions and outlines future research directions. A statistical annex will guide readers to data on tobacco consumption, prices, trade, and employment. Targeted at academic economists, epidemiologists, and technical staff in government and international agencies, it serves as a comprehensive introduction for students of economics, epidemiology, and public policy.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Third Edition. Volume  3,  Cancer,  presents  the  complex  patterns  of  cancer  incidence  and death around the world and evidence on effective and cost-effective ways to control cancers. The DCP3 evaluation of cancer will indicate where cancer treatment  is  ineffective  and  wasteful,  and  offer  alternative  cancer  care packages that are cost-effective and suited to low-resource settings. Main messages from the volume include:Quality matters in all aspects of cancer treatment and palliation.Cancer registries that track incidence, mortality, and survival, paired with systems to capture causes of death are important to understanding the national cancer burden and the effect of interventions over  time.Effective  interventions  exist  at  a  range  of  prices.  Adopting "resource appropriate" measures which allow the most effective treatment for  the  greatest  number  of  people  will  be  advantageous to countries.Prioritizing resources toward early stage and curable cancers is likely to have the greatest health impact in low income settings.Research prioritization is no longer just a global responsibility.Providing cancer treatment requires adequate  numbers  of  trained healthcare  professionals  and  infrastructure beyond  what  is  available  in  most  LMICs,  especially  low  income  countries. Careful patient monitoring is a requirement of good quality cancer care and this often involves laboratory tests in addition to clinical examination. Even if financing were immediately available to build or expand a cancer control system, reaching capacity will take many years.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Third Edition. As the culminating volume in the DCP3 series, Volume 9 will provide an overview of DCP3 findings and methods, a summary of messages and substantive lessons to be taken from DCP3, and a further discussion of cross-cutting and synthesizing topics across the first eight volumes. The introductory chapters (1-3) in this volume take as their starting point the elements of the Essential Packages presented in the overview chapters of each volume. First, the chapter on intersectoral policy priorities for health includes fiscal and intersectoral policies and assembles a subset of the population policies and applies strict criteria for a low-income setting in order to propose a "highest-priority" essential package. Second, the chapter on packages of care and delivery platforms for universal health coverage (UHC) includes health sector interventions, primarily clinical and public health services, and uses the same approach to propose a highest priority package of interventions and policies that meet similar criteria, provides cost estimates, and describes a pathway to UHC.…
