Being the required textbook for my medical sociology course, our entire class found this to be the most helpful resource in learning the important terms and context for learning about the situation of social medicine. I would recommend this text to anyone that wants an introduction to understanding the foundation of sociology in medicine.

Had everything I needed to pass this class.
