The editors take care to define the concept of social capital, describe its theoretical origins, and discuss the controversies and debates surrounding the use of the concept in public health research and practice. The book provides a comprehensive \"tool kit\" of current approaches to measure social capital. Further, the book surveys the empirical evidence linking social capital to physical and mental health outcomes, health-related behaviors (like smoking), and aging-related outcomes. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2007-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387713106\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-71311-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 292\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47667468533900,"sku":"9780387713106","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387713106.jpg?v=1776454919","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387713106","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
