Description

Explore the complex relationship between urban living and health in this comprehensive second edition from Academic Press. Cancers in the Urban Environment provides a detailed look at how malignant diseases are caused and distributed throughout a major global metropolis. Using Los Angeles County as the primary case study, this text examines the occurrence of common cancer forms within an ethnically, socially, and environmentally diverse landscape. This resource offers a deep dive into the patterns of 72 different malignancies. It analyzes these trends through various lenses, including race, age, sex, and social class. By tracking data from 1972 to the present, the book offers a longitudinal perspective on how urban environments impact public health. Most notably, it uses detailed high-risk maps to show how specific neighborhoods experience different health outcomes. This makes it a valuable resource for understanding the social and environmental factors that influence disease distribution in modern cities.
