Tale of Four Cities, A

Synopsis: Our experience of health is influenced by a complex web of social, economic and environmental factors. This leads to sharp contrasts in health patterns between the richest and poorest communities, which are evident in industriasied countries like Britain today. This program explores the factors behind this mosaic of health patterns by focusing on four British citiews: Salford, Manchester, Middlesbrough and Sunderland, where inequalities in health can be mapped even between neighbouring streets.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
