Description

Social Determinants of Health: A Comparative Approach – eBook PDF

Social Determinants of Health: A Comparative Approach, (PDF) introduces the various elements that define the health of individuals in their communities. The text takes a macro-level approach, emphasizing population health rather than strictly on individual health.

Social Determinants of Health emphasizes on “Anglo-American” countries-Canada, the US, the UK, and Australia-examining the commonalities and differences economically, socially, and politically.

The text begins by sketching the background, theory, and evidence from a population health perspective.

This is followed by discussion of environmental factors, like housing, employment, and diet, and social factors such as gender, support and well-being, and being an Aboriginal person.

The ebook concludes with a summary of the social patterning of health-relevant behavior and the politics of health-related policy.

Written in a simple manner, Social Determinants of Health further involves college students by offering case studies and “Pause and Reflect” boxes, in addition to end-of-chapter questions, suggested readings, and websites.

NOTE: The product only includes the ebook, Social Determinants of Health: A Comparative Approach, in PDF. No access codes are included.
