  <abstract>"For the first time, a guide to the sociology of health and healthcare that addresses the needs of both sociologist and healthcare professionals is available. Written by a career health professional with a medical sociology background, Society and Health: Sociology for Health Professionals applies sociological concepts to current healthcare issues, incorporates the latest findings from health services research, and provides clear examples of the uses of sociology in understanding the U.S. healthcare system. Each chapter contains illustrative boxed material, exhibits highlighting key information, suggestions for further reading, and websites that provide more useful information."</abstract>
