Full Description
The proposed book stands as a pioneering and unique contribution in the literary landscape, addressing a critical intersection of health and sustainable development. Migraine, often relegated to the sidelines in discussions about global health, emerges as a neglected disorder with profound implications for the achievement of SDG3 - ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages.
What sets this book apart is its strong commitment to unraveling the complexities surrounding migraine within the context of SDG3. Migraine, despite its prevalence and debilitating impact on individuals, has long been overshadowed by other health concerns. This book challenges this neglect, providing an in-depth exploration of the socio-economic factors contributing to the oversight of migraine and proposing actionable strategies aligned with SDG3 to rectify this global health blind spot.
The scope of the book extends far beyond conventional medical discourse, delving into the economic, social, and cultural dimensions of migraine's impact. It not only elucidates the physiological aspects of the disorder but also addresses the intricate web of factors hindering its recognition and adequate treatment on a global scale. By intertwining the narrative with SDG3, the book aims to ignite a paradigm shift, compelling stakeholders to recognize migraine as a pivotal player in the pursuit of universal health.
This book's target readership comprises not only neurologists seeking a comprehensive understanding of migraine but also brain health advocates worldwide. By appealing to a diverse audience, it aspires to foster a collaborative approach to tackle migraine within the framework of SDG3. The book's unique blend of medical insights, global health perspectives, and advocacy strategies makes it an indispensable resource for those committed to advancing neurological health and realizing the vision of SDG3 on a global scale. In essence, this book is poised to be a catalyst for change, altering the trajectory of how migraine is perceived, treated, and integrated into the broader discourse of sustainable development.
