Description
As migration to the city increases in developing countries, massive burdens are imposed on the infrastructure of poor cities that are ill-equipped to cope. This book examines the results of poor living conditions and overcrowding with particular emphasis on poor health care. Many issues are addressed and case studies examined. The study suggests public health and other programmes that could be set up by governments, non-governmental organizations and international agencies.
