Produktbeschreibung
Nutrition Economics: Principles and Policy Applications establishes the core criteria for consideration as new policies and regulations are developed, including application-based principles that ensure practical, effective implementation of policy. From the economic contribution of nutrition on quality of life, to the costs of malnutrition on society from both an individual and governmental level, this book guides the reader through the factors that can determine the success or failure of a nutrition policy.

Written by an expert in policy development, and incorporating an encompassing view of the factors that impact nutrition from an economic standpoint (and their resulting effects), this book is unique in its focus on guiding other professionals and those in advanced stages of study to important considerations for correct policy modeling and evaluation.

As creating policy without a comprehensive understanding of the relevant contributing factors that lead to failure is not an option, this book provides a timely reference.
Rezensionen
"Aside from providing a solid go-to text on the economics of nutrition within a broader development framework, the book offers a more fundamental contribution to improving the quality of research in food security and nutrition more generally, and within the SDG development agenda. There is a pressing need to develop the appropriate practical application skills among graduates and policy analysts alike, to serve the growing demand for evidence-based analysis to inform policy and programme design and evaluation. This indispensable text provides, in a single volume, all the resources, ideas and approaches to achieve this most important objective." --Food Security

"Nutrition Economics: Principles and Policy Applications is a timely book. ...The authors should be praised for the incredible effort to be exhaustive, and for their ability to translate potentially difficult technicalities into simplified examples, including references to Stata commands." --Asian Journal of Agriculture and Development.
