  • Gaining Health : Analysis of Policy Development in European
    Gaining Health Analysis of policy development in European countries for tackling noncommunicable diseases By Anna Ritsatakis and Péter Makara Editors: Jill L. Farrington, Robert Geneau and Bosse Pettersson Gaining health Analysis of policy development in European countries for tackling noncommunicable diseases By Anna Ritsatakis and Péter Makara Editors: Jill L. Farrington, Robert Geneau and Bosse Pettersson Abstract There is no greater threat to the health of people in the WHO European Region than that of noncommunicable diseases, yet this is an area where the greatest health gains are available at relatively modest cost. This book gives a detailed insight into the policy development in eight European countries over several decades to address the challenge of noncommuni- cable diseases, and draws out the main themes to assist policy-makers in formulating their own response. While originally developed to support countries in the implementation of the WHO European Strategy for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases, the insights are likely to be of benefit to a much wider audience.
