Résumé :
|
The book investigates the impact of globalization on human health. It offers a concise, authoritative account of more than three years of research.Economic insecurity fuels the spread of AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa; Poverty and collapsing health systems keep treatment away from most people who need it... Although increasing affluence improves health, globalisation often fails to deliver rapid economic growth and poverty reduction.People not only suffer from poverty and poor health, but also lose access to health care and other essential health-promoting services.
