| Sommario/riassunto: | Health Ecology presents an introduction to examining health from a human ecological perspective. Bringing together a variety of approaches from different perspectives and different locations, the contributors examine the various dimensions of health ecology in a human ecology framework, examining how local, regional and global factors impinge upon the health and environment of individuals, communities and the globe.; Experts from human ecology, public health and policy, sociology, anthropology and geography, draw on a range of global examples - spanning Australia, Japan, Spain, Belgium, N. America - to examine issues such as: health in urban and rural areas, child health from an ecological perspective, healthy homes, health within a political context, health and sustainable development, and health promotion and the media.; Setting out new foundations for Health Ecology, which aims to create and maintain a sustainable state of health for human beings in a healthy environment, this book offers new challenges to those teaching, studying or developing strategies and policies in health and the environment.; Hossein Adibi, Queensland University of Technology, Australia, Cristina Bernis, Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Spain, Dr. |
