I use this book for my students in a Social Determinants of Health course. I think it's excellent.
I used it for my graduate course in social justice and vulnerable populations. Excellent resource.
This book looks like it is going to be an interesting read and learning tool for me this semester.
A beefy book, but lots of great statistics. A little repetitive!
