Abstract

We have two objectives in this book. First, we bring together in one place, original research that sheds light on the myriad connections between disease, human health, and regional economic growth and development. Second, given the contemporary salience of Asia in world affairs, we concentrate on the trinity of disease, human health, and regional economic growth and development in different regions within Asia. Following this introductory chapter, there are nine chapters and each of these chapters—written by an expert or by a team of experts—discusses a particular research question or questions about disease, human health, and regional economic growth and development within Asia.

See Bloom and Canning (2008) and Weil (2014) for a more detailed corroboration of this claim. In addition, a comprehensive overview of studies of health differences between rural and urban areas can be found in Ishikawa et al. (2015).

Batabyal and Nijkamp (2017) note that irrespective of what region in the world one looks at, if one is interested in lifting large numbers of people out of poverty, then it is essential to design and implement policies that promote economic growth. This line of thinking is now so much a part of orthodox thinking that it features standardly in the literature on economic growth. For instance, in a prominent textbook, Ray (1998, p. 47) points out that of “all the issues facing development economists, none is quite so compelling as the question of economic growth.”

See Batabyal (2018a, b, c) for additional details on this last point.
