This book is an introduction to public health as a discipline and a critique of its recent development. The extensively revised edition reviews major health trends, the current state of the world's health, and the latest estimates of the global burden of disease. With examples drawn widely from rich and poor countries, the authors argue for an inclusive vision of public health based on the application in public policy of improved epidemiological understanding of the causes of disease. First Edition Hb (1997): 0-521-58373-X First Edition Pb (1997): 0-521-58665-8

Pressestimmen

From reviews of the first edition: 'They provide a breadth of view that is difficult to beat. The book takes a truly global approach to the major public health issues of today. This book is clear, well written and interesting.' Medical Journal of Australia 'Its inclusiveness is valuable, as are the data showing dramatic global trends and differences in health and the diverse country studies.' BMJ 'This is a well argued, up-to-date, and stimulating book. This book is to be recommended.' Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of London 'The accessible style of this book, liberally illustrated with the bullet points and chapter summaries, should ensure its place on the reading lists of schools of public health. It may help to inspire a new generation of public health practitioners to become broader, braver and more effective than their forebears.' Health Economics 'In summary, this is an impressive book, and is recommended as a reference for public health practitioners and as an introduction for managers, health professionals and students.' Health Service Journal
