Health and Social Policy; IndexThe authors of this groundbreaking text define social epidemiology as the study of the social determinants of health, implying that an important goal of public health is to identify and address factors in the social environment that may be related to health outcomes. In the first systematic account of this field, they focus on the major social variables that influence health, including socioeconomic position, income distribution, race/ethnicity, gender, social networks/social support, social capital and community cohesion, work environment, life transitions, and affective psychological states.ERACCE recommended resource.Social medicineEpidemiologySocial aspectsElectronic books.Social medicine.EpidemiologySocial aspects.306.4/61Berkman Lisa F887260Kawachi Ichirō937590MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459702103321Social epidemiology2156406UNINA
