The Acheson Report showed that in Britain health inequalities between rich and poor are increasing. By analysing and comparing a wide range of international case studies, this volume demonstrates the geographical variations in health outcomes which exist in a variety of settings.
Health geographies in the developed world, Elspeth Graham, Paul Boyle, Sarah Curtis and Eric Moore. Historical Variations: The origins of social class mortality differentials, Robert Woods; Locality level mortality and socio-economic change in Britain since 1920: first steps towards analysis of infant mortality variation, Rita Mota de Campos, Peter Congdon, Sarah Curtis, Ian Gregory, Ian Jones and Humphrey Southall; The widening gap - health inequalities in Britain at the end of the twentieth century, Mary Shaw, Daniel Dorling, David Gordon and George Davey Smith. Contemporary Variations: Why is mortality higher in unequal societies? interpreting income inequality and mortality in Canada and the US, Nancy Ross, Michael Wolfson, Jean-Marie Berthelot and James Dunn; Does migration exaggerate the relationship between deprivation and self-reported limiting long-term illness?, Paul Boyle and Oliver Duke-Williams; Measuring the geographic effects in a model of depression among the elderly in Canada, Eric Moore, Mark Rosenberg and Corey Mackenzie; Local geographies of health inequalities, Anthony Gatrell, Damon Berridge, Sharon Bennett, Lisa Bostock, Carol Thomas, Jennie Popay and Gareth Williams; The relationship of population density, postcode sector hectarage and area deprivation to premature mortality in four Scottish cities, Russell Ecob. Methods and Models: Evaluating the absolute and relative income hypotheses in an exploratory analysis of deaths in the Health and Lifestyle survey, Kelvyn Jones, Craig Duncan and Lizbeth Twigg; Identifying area effects on health: a comparison of single and multi-level models, Simon Gleave, Richard D. Wiggins, Heather Joshi and Kevin Lynch; The effect of the modifiable areal unit problem in modelling the distribution of limiting long-term illness in Northern England, Alistair Geddes and Robin Flowerdew; Limiting long-term illness and locality deprivation in England and Wales: acknowledging the 'socio-spatial context', Paul Boyle, Anthony Gatrell and Oliver Duke-Williams; The fallacy of the equivalence of a range of household and area based indicators of material resources in the geography of health inequalities, Sally Macintyre, Rosemary Hiscock, Anne Ellaway and Ade Kearns. Theoretical Dimensions: Combining the social and the spatial: improving the geography of health inequalities, Richard Mitchell, Mel Bartley and Mary Shaw; Siting wealth and illness: the case of recovery from myocardial infarction, Elspeth Graham, Malcolm MacLeod, Chris Dibben and Marie Johnston; From recognition to practice: gradients, inequality and the social geography of health, Michael Hayes.
