About the 1999 Edition - ISBN 10: 1861341741
The Acheson Inquiry was the most important government-backed examination into inequalities in health in the past 20 years. However, much of the detailed evidence presented to the Inquiry has not been published - until now.

Mothers/families/children
Youth
Adults of working age
Older people
Housing
Social environment
Poverty and income
The NHS
Nutrition
Education
Areas
Ethnicity
Transport/pollution/material environment
Gender
Mental health
Health-related behaviours
Oral health
Inequalities in health: The evidence is important reading for academics in the social and medical sciences, students, medical professionals and people working within the fields of health and community care.
