Description

Health, Illness, and Society: An Introduction to Medical Sociology (Illustrated Edition) – eBook PDF

Health, Illness, and Society: An Introduction to Medical Sociology, Illustrated Edition, (PDF) provides a sociological perspective on health, illness, and health care. Working as an introduction to medical sociology for undergraduate and graduate students, it also offers a summary of the field for public health scholars and for medical sociologists and practitioners. A highlight of the text is its stress on the social roots of health and disease and on the influence of social inequality on health disparities and the quality of health care. The ebook also critically examines health care in the United States and around the globe and evaluates the limitations and achievements of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and other recent health care reform efforts.
