Socioeconomic status (SES) is a powerful determinant of a person's health, and this effect is felt along the entire range of SES, not just at the extremes of wealth and poverty. In this volume, the full spectrum of biological psychological, and social pathways by which SES may influence health are explored. Questions addressed in this volume include: Does SES affect health or vice versa? Does the gradient occur for all diseases? Policies that could address the social inequalities associated with the gradient and their impact on health are also discussed.Michael Marmot is the author of 'Socioeconomic Status and Health in Industrial Nations: Social, Psychological and Biological Pathways (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences)' with ISBN 9781573312110 and ISBN 1573312118.
