Description

Explore the foundations of medical sociology with Health Care and Health Knowledge, part of the Routledge Library Editions: British Sociological Association. Originally published in 1977, this work provides a deep look into how medicine functions as an element in the maintenance of social order. As health care becomes a substantial part of the gross national product in most countries, this book examines the resulting pressures for state interest and intervention. It addresses the intellectual and social stimuli that drive developments in the field, making it a valuable resource for those studying the social context of medicine. This text offers a perspective on how medical systems interact with larger societal structures and government regulation.
