This disparity has drawn attention to the remarkable sensitivity of health to the social environment. This publication examines this social gradient in health, and explains how psychological and social influences affect physical health and longevity. It then looks at what is known about the most important social determinants of health today, and the role that public policy can play in shaping a social environment that is more conducive to better health. This second edition relies on the most up-to-date sources in its selection and description of the main social determinants of health in our society today. Key research sources are given for each: stress, early life, social exclusion, working conditions, unemployment, social support, addiction, healthy food and transport policy. Policy and action for health need to address the social determinants of health, attacking the causes of ill health before they can lead to problems. This is a challenging task for both decision-makers and public health actors and advocates. This publication provides the facts and the policy options that will enable them to act."--Provided by publisher. 517 3 $aSocial determinants of health :$ethe solid facts 606 $aHealth$xSocial aspects 606 $aPublic health$xSocial aspects 606 $aSocial medicine 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aHealth Policy 615 0$aHealth$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aPublic health$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSocial medicine. 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 12$aHealth Policy. 676 $a362.107 702 $aWilkinson$b Richard G. 702 $aMarmot$b Micheal$f1945- 702 $aBartley$b Mel 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bPUL 801 2$bCaOWtU 912 $a9910780598303321 996 $aThe solid facts$93750351 997 $aUNINA
