Geographies of Health and Development.

Geographies of Health and Development offers an insight into the intersection of medical geography and its social, political and environmental context. The discipline is a growing adjunct to public health, with concepts of space – the distributive aspects of disease and service responses – increasingly represented in geospatial imaging, with the recent Ebola outbreaks and their potential graphically set out. But the juxtaposition with the more complex issues of place, and the relationships of people and their settings allows a richer exploration of both health and development. The geographies explored in the book do extend the core methodologies of public health through their focus on the spatial and the human construction of place, and invite both practitioners and policy makers to re-imagine health and its links to development.
