"Thoroughly updated and revised, this new edition of
Understanding Health Inequalities
, edited by Hilary Graham, remains a welcome and timely contribution. Replete with thoughtful essays on health inequities analyzed in relation to societal structure, social position and geography ... the volume provides important insights into how class, racial/ethnic, gender, and spatial health inequities are produced - and how they can be rectified. The world economic crisis launched by the implosion of unregulated financial markets in the fall of 2008 only serves to underscore the volume's central conclusion: that government regulation and intervention, premised on a commitment to equity, is essential for tackling health inequalities. Health professionals, students, and any and all working for healthy and sustainable ways of living will benefit from this collection."

Understanding Health Inequalities second edition
provides an accessible and engaging exploration of why the opportunity to live a long and healthy life remains profoundly unequal.
Hilary Graham and her contributors outline the enduring link between people’s socioeconomic circumstances and their health and tackle questions at the forefront of research and policy on health inequalities. These include:
How health is influenced by circumstances across people's lives and by the areas in which they live
How health is simultaneously shaped by inequalities of gender, ethnicity and socioeconomic position
How policies can impact on health inequalities
All the chapters have been specially written for the new edition by internationally-recognised researchers in social and health inequalities. The book provides an authoritative guide to these fields as well as presenting new research.
