Title: WHAT WORKS IN TACKLING HEALTH INEQUALITIES?: PATHWAYS, POLICIES AND PRACTICE THROUGH THE LIFECOURSE
Description: "This book identifies the key targets for intervention through a detailed exploration of the pathways and processes that give rise to health inequalities across the lifecourse. It sets this against an examination of both local practice and the national policy context to establish what works in health inequalities policy, how and why. Authoritative yet accessible, the book provides a comprehensive account of theory, policy and practice. What Works in Tackling Health Inequalities? is essential reading for academics and students in medical sociology, social psychology, social policy and public health, and for policy makers and practitioners working in public health and social exclusion."--Jacket.
