The book brings together research and writing from a variety of disciplines to demonstrate the health costs of being poor in America's cities. Both authors are committed to raising awareness of structural factors that promote poverty and injustice in a society that proclaims its commitment to equality of opportunity. Our health is often dramatically affected by where we live; some parts of the city seem to be designed to make Metropolis and modern life.Inner citiesHealth aspectsUnited StatesUrban poorHealth and hygieneUnited StatesMinoritiesHealth and hygieneUnited StatesUrban healthUnited StatesInner citiesHealth aspectsUrban poorHealth and hygieneMinoritiesHealth and hygieneUrban health362.109173/2Fitzpatrick Kevin M1433399La Gory Mark1947-979286Fitzpatrick Kevin925233MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910953674903321Unhealthy cities4349279UNINA
