Handbook of Social Sciences and Global Public Health
Editat de Pranee Liamputtongen Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 sep 2023
Social sciences, such as medical sociology, medical anthropology, social psychology, and public health are the disciplines that examine the sociocultural causes and consequences of health and illness. It is evident that biomedicine cannot be the only answer to improving the health of people. What makes social sciences important in global public health is the critical role social, cultural, economic, and political factors play in determining or influencing the health of individuals, communities, and the larger society and nation.
This handbook is comprehensive in its nature and contents, which range from a more disciplinary-based approach and theoretical and methodological frameworks to different aspects of global public health. It covers:
- Discussions of the social science disciplines and their essence, concepts, and theories relating to global public health
- Theoretical frameworks in social sciences that can be used to explain health and illness in populations
- Methodological inquiries that social science researchers can use to examine global public health issues and understand social issues relating to health in different population groups and regions
- Examples of social science research in global public health areas and concerns as well as population groups
