- Title
Routledge Handbook of Health Geography. Edited by Valorie A. Crooks, Gavin J. Andrews and Jamie Pearce (2018).
- Abstract
In this section, three cross-cutting themes are examined: inequalities and inequities; structural drivers of global and local differences in health; and global processes affecting health and inequalities. Some ideas for the future of this discipline are also presented in this last section: among them, the notion that health geographers must develop practices that recognise and help tackle pressing health issues head-on and must consider the health consequences of ageing populations and widening health inequalities as well as the health impacts of climate change and other global health phenomena. Other interesting concepts examined in the chapters include therapeutic landscapes, poststructuralist geographies of health, and the influence of the nonrepresentational theory in health geography.
