| Summary |
"Addressing continuity and change in debates on ethnicity, health and health care, this volume captures the latest thinking in a rapidly developing field. The recent growth in the conceptual and methodological sophistication in studying national and international social, political and economic divisions and their implications for health and health care provision to minority ethnic groups is reflected in this collection."--BOOK JACKET |
