Abstract

The word 'Health' has enjoyed an enormous popularity with writers during the past quarter century. It was only during the second world war, the term 'social medicine' came into wider use. The concept of social medicine has given a new orientation of medicine to the changing needs of man and society. The vast majority of the population of the world still have no access to decent health care.
