{"product_id":"9783836491037","title":"Socio-Economic Restructuring and Health","description":"Communities on Canada's east and west coasts have experienced profound changes as a result of environmental and economic restructuring associated with the decline of traditional resource-based industries. This restructuring has resulted in social changes with major implications for the health and well-being of individuals and communities. \u003cbr\u003eThis book examines the relationship between socio-economic re­structuring and health in four BC coastal communities by a community health survey and in-depth interview studies. The findings of the survey analyses indicate that the communities lag behind the province of British Columbia and Canada as a whole in terms of self-reported health status. The main predictors of general and emotional health status and stress are a healthier lifestyle and higher socio-economic status (SES), along with a higher level of community satisfaction. Differences in health status are plausibly attributable to restructuring processes and major events in each community. \u003cbr\u003eThis book concludes that socio-economic restructuring has had an impact on the health of BC coastal communities and their residents in the last two decades.","brand":"VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47041395425520,"sku":"9783836491037","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783836491037_p0.jpg?v=1763688878","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783836491037","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
