What is Health and Society in Twentieth Century Britain (Themes In British Social History) about?
Part of the "Themes in British Social History" series, this volume focuses on the 20th century. Topics covered include education, poverty, health, religion, leisure, crime and popular protest, and is designed for undergraduates, postgraduates and the general reader. Few things tell us more of a nation's general well-being than the development of the life-expectancy of its citizens; the rising standards of health that they come to demand; and how evenly that improvement is shared throughout society. Helen Jones examines the record of twentieth-century Britain in these respects. She has much heartening progress to record - yet stark inequalities remain. Her book is thus both a review of, and contribution to, the current debates over gender, class and ethnic inequalities in standards of health in Britain today
