Health and Well-Being Across the Life Course, Hardback Book

Health and Well-Being Across the Life Course Hardback

Hardback

Description

Using a life course approach, the main chapters in this truly original and enlightening text focus on health and well-being during each of our life stages.

A wide range of contemporary literature from disciplines such as public health, sociology, epidemiology and social policy are drawn upon to examine key health and well-being issues in these stages, and to illustrate how health effects can accumulate across the life course.

Interactive activities based on the text and on extracts from primary sources are used to encourage critical reflection and debate. Mary Larkin′s book will be essential reading for students on the many courses that need an understanding of health and well-being across all age groups.

It will also be an invaluable resource for those in the health and social care sector as well as practitioners working in the field.
