Health in Saudi Arabia Vol. One (eBook, ePUB)

2Nd Edition

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There has been always a pressing need for a book which presents health topics in Saudi Arabia to planners, educators, learners, and medical practitioners. This book tries to fulfill part of this need. Volume I, an introduction and perspective, discusses some features of health problems, health manpower, and medical education in Saudi Arabia. It also provides under- and postgraduate medical students with materials for problem-based learning. Volume II, discusses aspects of health resources, problems, and services in the country. The book, in its two volumes, is far from being complete or comprehensive. It gives baseline information on health in a country that is developing very fast and still a beginner in medical research. Although the two volumes of the book have been initially published between 1985 and 1988, still it would be of value for readers who are interested in the background of health services development in Saudi Arabia Zohair Sebai (Jeddah, 2014)
