内容説明

The impact of the environment on disease causation and control has become a key item on the political agenda. Each contributor to this book addresses one of the contemporary debates concerning issues such as the interpretation of cancer clusters, the provision of care for the mentally ill and the likely progress of the AIDS epidemic. The book will be a useful research tool for researchers in the field of geography, medicine and statistics, but may also be of interest to a more general audience.
