Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is a book that challenges any existing complacency about the quality of healthcare offered to South Asian populations. It is written for a broad audience who have an interest or direct involvement in this important subject area and in my opinion will appeal to leaders, clinicians, nursing staff, managers, and the wider primary care community. Research, analysis and commentary are essential, but if South Asian people are to benefit from better services and improved care, then research in particular must be integrated with dissemination and development. This book engaged me, which is a hallmark of a good read. I most certainly recommend it, as I am sure it will engage you too. Inequity and inequality must be rigorously challenged and addressed. All members of the primary care team, including doctors and nurses; policy makers and shapers and healthcare academics and researchers will find this book essential reading.
