Description: xviii, 386 p. : ill. ; 25 cmISBN: 9780128008782NLM classification: RA 645.87 BN 2017Summary: 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.
Connects the direct and indirect impacts of economic policy on nutritional status
Provides practical insights into the analysis of nutrition policies and programs that will produce meaningful results
Presents a hands-on approach on how to apply economic theory to the design of nutritional policies and programs
