No single discipline can provide a full account of how and why health care is the way it is.
This book provides you with a series of conceptual frameworks which help to unravel the apparent complexity that confronts the inexperienced observer.
It demonstrates the need for contributions from medicine, sociology, economics, history and epidemiology.
