It is rich in concepts that can facilitate a fuller understanding of what health systems are. Joa?o Costa applies these concepts and shows the analytical possibilities they open up. He argues concisely how Luhmann's Social Systems Theory offers an integrated theoretical body as well as a consistent articulation of concepts that can lay the groundwork for a vastly improved health systems thinking. 410 0$aGesundheit, Kommunikation und Gesellschaft 517 $aHealth As a Social System 606 $aSocial service 606 $aPublic health 615 0$aSocial service. 615 0$aPublic health. 676 $a362.1 686 $aMS 6000$qDE-Ofb1/23$2rvk 700 $aCosta$b Joăo$0591888 712 02$aBMBF Fördervorhaben 16TOA002$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910642293303321 996 $aHealth as a Social System$93057622 997 $aUNINA
