Health Studies by Jennie Naidoo
Students of health studies need a multidisciplinary theoretical text that bridges social, behavioural and biological sciences and applies them to health and healthcare. This text provides in a single comprehensive volume coverage of all the major disciplines, perspectives and methodologies of health studies. Each chapter is written by a key academic in a particular discipline, and is divided into three parts covering: the contribution of the discipline to the study of health theoretical and methodological perspectives and an extended case study showing the relevance of the discipline in an applied health setting. "Health Studies: An Introduction" is feature rich, incorporating learning outcomes, chapter overviews and summaries, on page glossary definitions and cross referencing, case studies, examples, further reading and questions for discussion. It will be an essential core text for students of health studies and related courses.
