Library of essential books to read on the topic of ‘Value in healthcare’
BookPods
As part of its mission, the Oxford Centre for Triple Value Healthcare (3V) promotes the dissemination of knowledge.
From our library of almost 1000 books we have produced short downloadable podcasts that summarise of the most important classic books- BookPods. These are essential for anyone working in healthcare and enable you to learn while you walk, drive or travel by bus or train.
Each week we will add another book to this page and add it to our Podcast Channel ‘Radio Value’.
Sign up to receive our weekly podcast from Radio Value or subscribe on iTunes here and you will get a new BookPod each week.
