| 520 | 1 | |a "Health and Health Care in the Nation's Prisons presents a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the health care challenges facing today's prisons along with concrete recommendations for change. In addition to an overview of the most common prison health care problems, this book provides a unique assessment of the needs of largely overlooked prison populations, including women, people of color, and older adults. Melvin Delgado and Denise Humm-Delgado cover high-profile health care needs, such as substance abuse and mental illness, as well as lower-profile needs like hepatitis and STDs. They also provide essential background information on the development of today's crisis by tracing the history of the U.S. health care system and how it has changed over time to meet social needs."--Jacket. | |
