This book provides a fresh perspective on the issues surrounding health, health care, and illness. In addition to the traditional approaches of health sciences and the sociology of health, it shows the impact that human rights issues and political economy have on health. This provocative volume takes up these issues as they occur in Canada and the United States, but within a wider international context. No book to date has taken such an in-depth look at the construction of health care and illness internationally.
