Description

This introductory text encourages the application of sociological insights in health care. Health processes and outcomes are analyzed in terms of social difference, inequality, opportunities and life chances. Key sociological concepts and theories are introduced by using practical exercises and an active learning approach. The book is written in an accessible style so that it can be used as a course text but should also appeal to individual readers at all levels in their career. The book is for those on degree and diploma courses in nursing and midwifery, health studies, health promotion and sports sciences; and healthcare practitioners including midwives, health visitors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and health promotion officers.
