Focusing on the relative importance of income and education, Murtin finds that education alone accounts for the bulk of health improvements since 1870, and explains the strong correlation between longevity and income, which is highly correlated with education. Conversely, the book shows that progress in longevity has had dramatic consequences on societies, as it reduced fertility, triggered the spread of education, spurred economic growth, and improved 'prosperity' in a way that is comparable to the long-term rise in income. Health and Prosperity sheds light on the real cost of health systems in the 21st century. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aPublic finance 606 $aSchools of economics 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aHealth economics 606 $aPublic Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34000 606 $aHeterodox Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W53000 606 $aMicroeconomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31000 606 $aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W32000 606 $aHealth Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W35000 615 0$aPublic finance. 615 0$aSchools of economics. 615 0$aMicroeconomics. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aHealth economics. 615 14$aPublic Economics. 615 24$aHeterodox Economics. 615 24$aMicroeconomics. 615 24$aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics. 615 24$aHealth Economics. 676 $a338.4/73621 686 $aBUS039000$aBUS044000$aBUS069000$2bisacsh 700 $aMurtin$b Fabrice$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0960612 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254884103321 996 $aHealth and Prosperity$92177710 997 $aUNINA
