Sherman Folland and Eric Nauenberg present the cutting-edge of
research covering the ever-expanding social capital field. With
excellent contributions from leading academics, the Elgar Companion
to Social Capital and Health offers a developed examination of new
research across sociology, epidemiology, economics, psychology and
political science. Authors from across North America, Europe and
Asia provide wide-ranging and detailed accounts of social capital
and health, focusing on social networks, causality and
productivity. Sections cover theoretical perspectives and empirical
evidence supporting the connection between social capital and
health worldwide. Authors discuss ageing, immigration, religion and
workplace health, as well as focusing on social capital in
developing countries experiencing rapid and extensive economic
growth. Essential reading for any aspirational social capital and
health policy academic, this Companion offers future paths for
research within sociology, health economics, epidemiology,
political science and social policy. The breadth of study would
also benefit public health officials, policy analysts and
healthcare decision-makers. Contributors include: S.R. Ali, N.D.
