The chapters propose varied and detailed answers to questions about epidemics and their contagious potential for specific infections and non-infectious conditions. Together they explore how inseparable social and biological processes configure co-existing influences, which create epidemics, and in doing so stress the role of social inequality in these processes. The authors compellingly show that epidemics do not spread evenly in populations or through simple coincidental biological contagion: they are biosocially structured and selective, and happen under specific economic, political and environmental conditions. This volume illustrates that an understanding of biosocial factors is vital for ensuring effective strategies for the containment of epidemics.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBContributor: Lotte Meinert (Edited by), Jens Seeberg (Edited by)Author: Lotte MeinertGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, MedicineBook Series: Epistemologies of HealingRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
