Customer Reviews

Unhealthy Places focuses on issues of health in today's cities. By arguing that 'place matters' in relation to the population's health, Kevin Fitzpatrick and Mark LaGory make a convincing argument about the general unhealthiness of urban environments and thus, of the urban dweller. The authors offer a place-oriented approach to health and cover such topics as:
* the ecology of everyday urban life
* the sociology of health
* needs and risks of the socially disadvantaged
* needs and risks of children and the elderly in cities
* strategies for better health services in urban environments.
