Résumé :
|
Staying Alive provides a fresh perspective on the issues surrounding health, health care, and illness. In addition to the traditional approaches of health sciences and the sociology of health, this book shows the impact that human rights issues and political economy have on health. This provocative volume takes up these issues as they occur in Canada and the United States within a wider international context. No other book takes such an in-depth look at the construction of health care and illness internationally. (extracted from the foreword)
