Description: Gift Relationship : From Human Blood to Social Policy, Hardcover by Titmuss, Richard M., ISBN 1447349571, ISBN-13 9781447349570, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US In this classic social policy study first published in 1970, Richard Titmuss (London School of Economics) compares the blood donation systems in the UK, which relies on voluntary donors, and the US, which is primarily a for-profit system. He also examines the blood donation systems in the Soviet Union and South Africa. He demonstrates that a system based on altruism is safer and more efficient and expands this conclusion to other areas of welfare provision. This reprint offers the original content of the 1970 edition (including the original preface and all seven original appendices), in order to emphasize its contribution to welfare theory.
