Health and Healthcare Systems: A Global View offers a detailed and diverse examination of health systems used across the world. Emphasizing health equity and its global implications, this textbook provides critical historical, economic, and cultural insights integrated into every chapter. Contributions from international experts who have lived and interacted with nation-specific health systems render valuable perspectives on the challenges facing diverse populations within various health systems. The book delves into a broad range of topics, including the etiology and determinants of health and disease globally, innovative approaches in health service delivery, regional health outcomes and disparities, and the far-reaching effects of colonization, global power imbalances, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Organized into thirteen regional sections, this text presents an extensive analysis of health systems across the globe. It promotes diversity, inclusion, cultural humility, and advocacy skills, preparing students for successful careers in public health and healthcare within the United States and abroad. The countries examined represent a spectrum of economic statuses, geographical settings, demographic profiles, and healthcare system structures, including those with and without universal healthcare coverage. With its rich inclusion of illustrations and relevant global examples, Health and Healthcare Systems provides an engaging and insightful overview of comparative healthcare systems worldwide.
