Book Synopsis Redistributing Health by : Thomas Allan McIntosh

Book excerpt: What too few people realize is that, as Andre Picard writes in his Foreword to Redistributing Health, "social justice--or lack thereof has a greater impact on the health of the population than the human genome, lifestyle choice, and medical treatment." The truth is that things like poverty, social exclusion, lack of meaningful employment, and lack of access to education or good housing contribute significantly to ill health in Canada--and none of these will be remedied by doctors or hospitals or pill bottles.
