| Description: |
This book for faculty, students, and researchers in public health and the social sciences addresses health disparities based on race and racism, and classism and gender and sexism. This edited volume brings together an interdisciplinary group of social scientists and public health scholars to examine these issues. |
| Synopsis: |
Gender, Race, Class, and Health examines relationships between economic structures, race, culture, and gender, and their combined influence on health. The authors systematically apply social and behavioral science to inspect how these dimensions intersect to influence health and health care in the United States. This examination brings into sharp focus the potential for influencing policy to improve health through a more complete understanding of the structural nature of race, gender, and class disparities in health. As useful as it is readable, this book is ideal for students and professionals in public health, sociology, anthropology, and women s studies. |
