Sara Rizvi Jafree is assistant professor of sociology at Forman Christian College University, Lahore, and her treatise, The Sociology of South Asian Women’s Health, addresses the knowledge gap in health policy for the women of South Asia and will help mobilise developments in the same.
Jafree is co-author of all chapters; this has maintained critical coherence and a continuity of the thought process, ensuring that the central theme is upheld across the book. Her co-authors from Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and the United Kingdom are not just academic scholars, but also practising clinicians and specialists in the field of health policy. They thus bring with them the rich experience of discussing the social and cultural determinants of health behaviour and health outcomes in women of South Asia.
