Sociology & anthropology
An Introduction to the Sociology of Health & Illness
by White, Kevin
Description
This is a new edition of the best-selling textbook for students in the Sociology of Health & Illness. The first edition was widely praised for its clarity, accessibility and comprehensive coverage. All of these features are retained in the new edition. Added to them are:
- Systematic updated empirical references to the material covered in the first Edition.
- A revision of the more challenging elements in the theory section to facilitate comprehension and enhance study.
- A consideration of the 'new public management' philosophy in hospital and health care administration.
The result is a book that academics and students in the sociology of health and illness will use as a 'first stop' to study. Free of jargon, intuitive about student needs and well versed in course requirements, the new edition will refresh old readers and delight new ones.
