Descripción
Sumario:When setting spending priorities in education and health, countries all too often target expensive schemes which can be shown only to benefit specific sections of the population, often the non-poor. The building of certain urban hospitals and universities may fall into this category.

This book pleads for a series of policy orientations leading towards pro-poor health and education spending.
