RACE & HEALTH CONTEMP BRIT by Ahmad Wi-U
A critical introduction to the subject of "race" and health in contemporary Britain and fills a vital gap in the existing literature. Written by leading black and white academic researchers, policy analysts and service providers, committed to achieving anti-racist change, the book provides an analysis of the health and health care of Britain s black population within the context of political, economic and institutional structures and the ideology of racism. Contributions cover: politics of health research; areas of current health concern such as mental health, maternity services and care of the elderly; and health policy issues such as equality in service delivery, employment in the NHS, NUS reforms and health promotion. The book reviews and advances debates in health research and health care delivery in relation to black populations. It is particularly aimed at students and teachers in the social sciences (especially sociology of health, race relations and social policy), public health and health promotion, nursing, and social work, as well as health service managers, policymakers and community organizations.| SKU | Unavailable |
