More recently, science has been testing this hypothesis, concentrating on the impact of the built environment on well-being and its contribution to health inequities. Neighbourhood Structure and Health Promotion offers sociology-based theory and evidence-based findings so readers may better understand the effects of place on health choices, behaviour, and outcomes. This international volume analyzes the complex relationships among neighbourhood conditions and characteristics.-- UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1506/2013931258-t.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1506/2013931258-d.html ER -
