Beschreibung:
Mike Luck and Margaret Bamford are the authors of Men's Health: Perspectives, Diversity and Paradox, published by Wiley.
he issue of men's health has attracted considerable interest in recent years. Fewer men consult their doctors and men have higher rates of admission to hospital, a widely accepted indicator of serious health problems. In recent years men's health networks have emerged and some research into men's health has been carried out. However, there is still a dearth of material published in book form and this text aims to redress that balance.This important new book outlines the development of the field of men's health, discusses men's health and illness and the underlying reasons for the patterns of disease. It also looks at existing services and how these should be resourced in the future.
