This book discusses the quality of life, a topic of concern now
more than ever before. Government policy demands that programs
prove their "cost-effectiveness" in order to insure that they
receive new or continued funding. Social scientists have been drawn
into this process, directly as assessors of the cost-effectivemness
of policies, and indirectly, as the political climate increasingly
shapes research priorities and budgets.
The issues addressed in this volume range from a philosophical
question of what the "good life" is, to detailed studies of what
constitutes a good quality of life for particular client groups.
Researchers from within traditionally separate disciplines, are
now forced to confront this same issue. This collection effectively
highlights the benefits of drawing together the experiences of
applied researchers, policy analysts, as well as those engaged in
theoretical debates on the subject.
