Contents:

War and health : a conceptual and theoretical framework -- Conflict and levels of health achievement -- A disaggregated analysis of the impact of war on health -- Collateral damage : war, infrastructure, and public health -- The allocation of resources between defense and health -- Forced migration and population health.

Summary: Assessments of the costs of war generally focus on the financial, political, military, and territorial risks associated with involvement in violent conflict. Often overlooked are the human costs of war, particularly their effects on population well-being. This book explores these human costs by offering a large-scale empirical study of the relationship between armed conflict and population health.
