It reveals the deficiencies in the American healthcare structure that have contributed to the mismanagement of healthcare in the Black population, and examines cross-currents that intersect with the major events in minority medical history. Illustrated across 10 expertly written chapters, this text features a longitudinal timeline with the presentation of evidence-based information drawn from historical, political, and clinical sources. The book begins with an analysis of diseases particularly prevalent in the Black community due to socioeconomic inequalities in available medical care. These diseases include sickle cell anemia, hypertension, heart failure, drug addiction, and HIV/AIDS. Bolstered by profiles of historically well-known Black physicians, stories of success in medical education, and the remarkable impact of Black medical organizations, subsequent chapters address the triumphs and tribulations of the Black medical professional in America. Concluding with an examination of the current health status of Black people in the United States, the book makes a case for future systemic improvements in healthcare delivery to minority communities. A unique, noteworthy reference, Blacks in Medicine: Clinical, Demographic, and Socioeconomic Correlations is written for a broad range of physicians and health providers, as well as professionals in the social sciences and public health. 000931834 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xHealth and hygiene. 000931834 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans in medicine. 000931834 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030419592$$z9783030419592$$w(OCoLC)1138543452 000931834 852__ $$bebk 000931834 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-41960-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000931834 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:931834$$pGLOBAL_SET 000931834 980__ $$aEBOOK 000931834 980__ $$aBIB 000931834 982__ $$aEbook 000931834 983__ $$aOnline 000931834 994__ $$a92$$bISE
