About this title

Synopsis

Health social science synthesizes diverse fields of knowledge in order to understand and solve complex health problems. This volume presents 10 case studies which reveal some of the best practice in health social science in developing countries. Each study addresses the critical question of how social and behavioral science approaches can make a difference in improving significant health problems. Examples drawn from Africa, Latin America, Asia, and the Pacific look at problems such as AIDS, people's reliance on traditional healers, STDs, smoking, heart disease, and psychological stress.
