Recently, a growing volume of literature indicates the increasing impacts of global environmental change, globalisation and economic liberalisation on health; therefore, issues related to inequity, inequalities, disparities and vulnerability need to be re-examined. This book includes the latest developments of concepts, methods, perspectives and issues in the geographies of health, health care and wellbeing. The book consists of three parts representing three major domains of health geography. Each part covers one important concept and related methodology issues as a focus area, which is currently used in teaching and research in health geography. The book also presents a major representation of research studies from developing countries in general and South Asian countries in particular. It can be used as a reference book for teaching and research on the geography of health all over the world, and it is a useful resource for academicians, researchers and professionals in human geography, medical sociology, health psychology, medical anthropology, population studies, epidemiology, community health, development studies and policy studies.
