Description - Hormones, Health and Behaviour by Catherine Panter-Brick
As widespread social transformations have been paralleled by gains in health and life expectancy through public health and other improvements, a variety of other challenges to health have emerged, particularly in life-style related, behaviourally mediated changes in rates of chronic disease. This book looks at the relationship of human biology and human society, at the intersection of behaviour, hormones and health. There is both scientific interest and practical urgency behind the ideas and findings presented here, as the need for a socio-ecological view of function and well-being has become more apparent. This book documents an emerging understanding of how hormones create the linkage between behaviour or social life and health. It will inform graduate students and scholars interested in the human sciences, anthropology, epidemiology, public, environmental, and reproductive health.
