My goal was to find an open textbook resource for a core course in our undergraduate Public Health program called Health Promotion and Education. I was unable to find open textbooks specifically in the area of Public Health, thus explored options in Medical Sociology and related fields. That led to my selection of the following textbook to review:
Freund, P. E. S., McGuire, M. B., & Podhurst, L. S. (2003). Health, illness, and the social body: A critical sociology. Upper Saddle River, New Jersey: Prentice Hall. Accessed at: http://ferris.libguides.com/c.php?g=290901&p=1937753 and http://digitalcommons.trinity.edu/mono/6/
