Description
This essential text surveys the perspectives, methodologies, and theories that geographers use to address the subject of human health and disease.
Wide ranging and international in scope, the volume synthesizes knowledge from across the social, physical, and biological sciences.
Coverage includes the cultural ecology of disease; landscape epidemiology; developmental change and human health; biometeorology; disease ecology and spatial analysis in developed countries; spatial interaction in disease diffusion; health care resources, delivery systems, and planning; and research methodologies and data-analytic techniques.
Throughout, clearly presented vignettes examine special issues and demonstrate the use of advanced statistical tools.
The text is richly illustrated with tables, figures, and maps, including a four-page color insert.
