In Health Activism: Foundations and Strategies, Glenn Laverack provides both a “why to” and “how to” guide to health activism. He defines activism as an “action on behalf of a cause, action that goes beyond what is conventional or routine”. Laverack makes a persuasive case for how activism has a role in public health policy and practice.

'This is a highly readable textbook on activism for health. It will be essential reading for students of public health and social policy, and for health activists themselves. The mix of theory and examples sustains interest and keeps the book grounded in real life' -

David Ross, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine

Learning Disabilities nurses have a clear role in challenging the health inequalities experienced by people with learning disabilities. Students are directed to the sections on power, ethics and leadership as part of their studies. An interesting text, and although not specifically learning disabilities focused so much is transferrable.
