Table of ContentsReviews"""Contextuality of Healthcare Choices in Pakistan substantially contributes to the literature on healthcare decision-making by not only addressing cultural barriers to healthcare resources but by incorporating research concerning alternative healthcare. Each chapter presents thought-provoking findings which are also relevant to other countries around the globe. The contributors demonstrate that health can be a privilege, a status commodity, a lifestyle, or an expression of sustained stratification depending on one's socioeconomic status. This book is critical for sociologists (especially medical sociologists), students and professionals in healthcare, academicians interested in health, wellness specialists, and policymakers."" --Giselle C. M. Greenidge, Northwest Missouri State University ""This text provides a comprehensive overview of healthcare choices in Pakistan from a sociological perspective.
