Global Health Studies - A Social Determinants PerspectivePaperback
A global view of health offers a richer understanding of ways of measuring, improving and sustaining health both in individual national settings and in the context of a strongly interconnected world. Moving beyond an epidemiological analysis, the authors use a social determinants framework and life course approaches to offer a critical introduction to the study of global health. This book draws on social scientific insights and explanations to examine trends in global health.
Key themes such as power, inequality and inequity - and their impact on health on a global scale - recur throughout the book. Through individual chapters focusing on topics such as health policy, global governance, health systems and health-related protests, the authors present the scope of global health studies and introduce readers to broader ranging issues such as globalization and political forces.
