Cover of Helen Macbeth & Prakash Shetty: Health and Ethnicity (PDF)

In modern multicultural societies, the topic of ‘health and ethnicity’ has become increasingly recognised as highly relevant. All too frequently, academic coverage of the topic has been scattered in specialist literature of different disciplines; a book bringing these perspectives together has so far been lacking.The aim of the book is to explain the diversity in health experience due to determinants and factors that can be described as ‘ethnic’. Both ‘ethnicity’ and ‘health’ are words that have stimulated semantic debate, and yet too seldom is sufficient sensitivity given over to the complexity of the issue.
