Health and health care in the Netherlands

As the first edition, this book describes the organization and background of the Dutch health care system. The country's varied types of services are discussed, from prevention and primary health care to hospitals. In addition, several topics for which Holland is especially known are explored, such as abortion and euthanasia policy. This new edition is broader than its predecessor; the aim was to present a more complete overview of our health care system. Health and Health Care in the Netherlands is a must for every student, teacher and visitor of the Dutch health care sector.
