Understanding Public Health in Rural Populations of India


Add your own review!

Overview

In developing countries such as India, there are stark contrasts between urban and rural populations, presenting unique challenges for public health promotion and intervention. For example, urban areas have sophisticated hospital facilities, while rural populations visit community caretakers with no medical training. Communicable disease and chronic infection rates are therefore very different. There are cultural determinants as well, such as urban women seeking low, vanity weights, while rural women take steroids to gain weight for marriage. This book presents a fascinating study of the complexities of rural public health in developing countries.
