Rural Healthcare was the first textbook of rural medicine in the UK. In this fully revised second edition, it continues to fulfil the requirement for a resource dedicated to the particular needs of those living and practising in rural areas. Offering an authoritative, informative, evidence-based, practical reference book, it is required reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of rural healthcare, a foundation for rural healthcare curriculae and an inspirational read.

It is invaluable for both intending and established rural primary healthcare workers, including general practitioners, nurses, midwives, paramedics, therapists, managers and administrators.
