Details:
Looking at health and healthcare in a new way, this book examines health risks and benefits as encountered 'on the move' rather than focusing on the risks and benefits incurred at fixed locations. The provision and utilization of healthcare are also investigated in mobile settings. This book covers many forms of movement and flow, including movements of people, disease, information, and healthcare. It addresses issues such as re-emerging infections, displaced persons, and the 'risks' of globalized travel, which are of ongoing concern.
Drawing on geography, sociology, and epidemiology, Tony Gatrell makes strong connections between these areas, offering fresh insights into health behaviors and outcomes beyond fixed geographical locations. This book is timely and of policy relevance, particularly for researchers in health, mobilities, and global public health.
