This volume connects aspects of personal health, overall
well-being, and education to quality of life. It includes
discussions of Galen's and Harvey's views of the movement of blood
in human bodies, and differences in the research traditions of
social indicators research and health-related quality of life
research. It examines determinants of health and quality of life in
a variety of populations, including the residents of the Bella
Coola Valley of British Columbia, aboriginal residential school
survivors in Canada, and diabetics versus non-diabetics. It
describes relations between health survey and patients' medical
chart reviews, the health and quality of life of older people, and
the difference between good health and a good life. Other topics
explored are student quality of life, comparisons of the quality of
life of students, aboriginal and unemployed people, the impact of
education on happiness and well-being, and liberal education. In
addition, the volume presents Einstein's views of ethics and
science, and unacknowledged authorship in scholarly publications.
The final chapter gives a historical review of quality of life
research in Canada over the past fifty years.
