Applying Health Social Science by Nick Higginbotham & Roberto Briceno-Leon & Nancy Johnson

Best Practice in the Developing World

Health social science is a rapidly evolving area of transdisciplinary research and practice. It seeks to forge partnerships across the social science and health fields and to increase equity in health and health care. The ten action research case studies in this book, from Africa, Latin America, Asia and the Pacific, illustrate some of the best practice in health social science in developing countries. Each explores how social and behavioural science approaches can help to solve health problems, ranging across AIDS, reliance on traditional healers, the use of both indigenous and modern medicine, STDs, smoking, heart disease and stress. The editors reflect on future challenges and innovations in health social science research.
