Cost-Benefit Analysis: Theory and Application

by Tevfik F. Nas

Cost-Benefit Analysis: Theory and Application Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This book has been designed specifically with the non-economist in mind - for example, students in public administration, urban studies and health care - who may have little or no preparation in economics. It includes recent developments in the theoretical and empirical cost-benefit analysis (CBA) literature beginning with a detailed discussion of welfare economics and the microeconomic foundations of CBA. It gives comprehensive treatment to CBA methodology and concludes with the current state of CBA as it is practised by public and international agencies, with applications in areas of health care and the environment.

Book News Annotation:

Writing for social directors and therapists, Thurman (theater, Northwestern U.) and Piggins (Director, Creative Education Associates) have compiled over 50 introductory group activities for older adults to stimulate the senses, awaken the imagination, activate body movement, and stimulate communication. The material grew out of workshops conducted in Illinois in response to the isolation and loss evidently experienced by the elderly. Includes session plans, objectives, lists of materials required, and evaluation methods.
