Description

Offers a fresh look at health, healing and illness, providing a bridge between human experience and social policies and practices. Seven sections link personal accounts with structural problems to demonstrate how gender, race, class, and age affect patients and players within the health-care system. Topics include the problematics of defining health, illness and identity, the sociology of the body, the distribution of illness and care, caretaking and caregiving, and health policy and reform. No index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
