Studies in Health, Illness, and Caregiving

Books in this series explore issues and ideas related to health and health-care systems in the United States and elsewhere. Applying theory and methodology from history, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and political science, books in the series investigate such topics as changing ideas about health and illness, the use of medical technology, the role of gender and class in the delivery of health care, and community responses to disease. The series is closed to new submissions.
