Publisher's Comments (cont.)
Bringing together a variety of approaches from different perspectives and different locations, 13 contributions examine the various dimensions of health ecology in a human ecology framework, looking at how local, regional, and global factors impinge upon the health and environment of individuals, communities, and the globe. Contributors from the fields of human ecology, public health and policy, sociology, anthropology, and geology draw on examples from Australia, Indonesia, Spain, Belgium, and North America in an effort to examine such issues as health in urban and rural areas, child health from and ecological perspective, healthy homes, health within a political context, health and sustainable development, and health promotion and the media.
