This volume explores the nature of health and health-care
experiences in Russia by comparing societies and communities with
different socio-cultural conditions. The unique use of longitudinal
data collected over ten years, allows the authors to address key
questions on Russians individual experiences of health care and
their understanding of its influencing factors. They explore the
methods of self treatment and illness prevention in combination
with the effects poverty and treatment availability can have on the
standards of living for the people surveyed. This pertinent issue
follows a time of rapidly worsening health status amongst the
Russian population and a grave decline in male life expectancy. The
findings are set within the context of experience from Finland and
the UK, allowing the authors to explore the challenge of the
Russian health-care crisis to Western European models of health
status and health care.
