As interest in social capital has grown over the past
decade-particularly in public health -so has the lack of consensus
on exactly what it is and what makes it worth studying. Ichiro
Kawachi, a widely respected leader in the field, and 21
contributors (including physicians, economists, and public health
experts) discuss the theoretical origins of social capital, the
strengths and limitations of current methodologies of measuring it,
and salient examples of social capital concepts informing public
health practice. Among the highlights: Measurement methods: survey,
sociometric, ethnographic, experimental The relationship between
social capital and physical health and health behaviors: smoking,
substance abuse, physical activity, sexual activity Social capital
and mental health: early findings Social capital and the aging
community Social capital and disaster preparedness Social Capital
and Health is certain to inspire a new generation of research on
this topic, and will be of interest to researchers and advanced
students in public health, health behavior, and social
epidemiology.
