he Health of People - a report compiled by the Campaign for Social Sciences - investigates a range of ways to cut the cost of health interventions and to improve patient outcomes as well as ways of preventing people becoming patients. The report includes arguments for and case studies in favor of a more rounded, social science informed view of health and well-being. It concludes with an invitation to clinicians and policy makers to think outside the box of "care" about the causes and prevention of ill health.
