Non-communicable diseases have surpassed infectious diseases as the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Prevention and treatment of the causes and consequences of lifestyle-related diseases forms an important part of health policy in the twenty-first century. Public health economics – from quantifying the problem, to evaluating interventions and developing toolkits to assist decision makers – is an essential area for any postgraduate student and researcher with an interest in applied economics to understand. There are a wide range of techniques from mainstream economics and health economics that can be applied to the evaluation of public health policy and public health issues. In this book, Brown presents examples from developed countries to illustrate how economic tools can be applied to public health. Further, cross-country comparisons illustrate how contextual factors related to healthcare systems, demographics and environmental factors may impact on outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of public health policies, in order to aid understanding and help students apply theory into practice. .

This, the first book-length study devoted exclusively to Marx’s perspectives on gender and the family, offers a fresh look at this topic in light of twenty-first century concerns. Although Marx’s writings sometimes exhibit sexism, especially through the naturalization of certain female social functions, his work often transcends these. Brown studies those writings on gender, as well as his 1879-1882 notebooks on precapitalist societies and gender, some of them still unpublished in any language. The author argues that although Marx never fully developed these ideas, he gave important indications toward a theory of gender and society. This study attempts to fill a significant gap in the literature on Marx and offer some general insights into the intersectionality of gender and class.

Raya Dunayevskaya is one of the twentieth century’s great but underappreciated Marxist and feminist thinkers. She developed a unique philosophy and practice of Marxist-Humanism, as well as an original reading of Hegelian dialectics and the deep humanism that informs Marx’s thought. From these contributions, along with her writings on Rosa Luxemburg, and on Black and women’s liberation, we are offered an indispensable resource for navigating the struggles of today. In this first-ever collection of essays on Dunayevskaya, a diverse group of writers revisits her rich legacy and brings to life her most important ideas. Kevin B. Anderson is Professor of Sociology, Political Science and Feminist Studies at University of California, Santa Barbara, USA. Kieran Durkin is Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellow at University of York, UK. Heather A. Brown is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Westfield State University, USA.
