One Health Meets the Exposome: Human, Wildlife, and Ecosystem
Health brings together the two powerful conceptual frameworks of
One Health and the Exposome to comprehensively examine the myriad
of biological, environmental, social, and cultural challenges
impacting the interrelated health of humans, wildlife, and
ecosystems. One Health as an encompassing concept and collaborative
framework recognizes the interconnections among humans, wildlife,
and our shared environment with the goal of optimizing health
outcomes for all. The Exposome is more specifically oriented to
human health and considers cumulative environmental exposures
affecting individuals, communities, and populations. This book will
provide the broadened and integrative view that considers a more
holistic approach needed to confront the complex issues facing us
today. One Health Meets the Exposome: Human, Wildlife, and
Ecosystem Health is a valuable and cutting-edge resource for
researchers and practitioners in medicine, public health, animal
science, wildlife and field biology, and for any reader looking to
better understand the relationships among human health and the
environment.
