| Annotation | Poverty, income inequality and the inequitable distribution of health invariably co-occur. The strength of the relationship between wealth and health holds, even in countries with universal health care. A systematic literature review describes pathways from inequality of wealth to embodied diseases. The significance for social policy and social work practice is developed. (KJ/RH). |
