Recenzii

For any doubters that health inequalities are widening after 10 years of a government committed to reducing them, Challenging Health Inequalities provides the evidence. Notwithstanding some modest successes, the key to reducing health inequalities - income redistribution - has worsened over the decade. As New Labour struggles to renew itself under a new Prime Minister, this book is a timely reminder of the enormity of the challenge confronting it. David J Hunter, Durham University

..adds further depth and breadth to our understanding of health inequalities and policies to address them... Sociology of Health & Illness, Vol 30:3, 2009

the book benefits from bringing together a wide range of professional and academic experiences that make a valuable contribution to addressing these issues in a contemporary society ... I would recommend this book as a valuable reference resource for departments, teams or organisations www.pcx.nhs.uk - NHS Patient-Citizen Exchange Newsletter, December 2007

An excellent, much needed textbook that provides a critical overview of the health inequalities agenda today and what progress has/has not been made. Dr Anne Confopoutos, Liverpool Hope University
