"This is a very good text for undergraduate students as it gives a
broad overview of the concept of public health, utilising case
studies to illustrate practical application. This book would be
also be an excellent way for practitioners to increase their own
knowledge of public health and could inform their own continuing
professional development." Julie Lempriere, University of
Gloucestershire Key Concepts in Public Health identifies fifty key
concepts used across the discipline of public health in order to
give the reader a broad perspective of the core topics relevant to
training and practice. From epidemiology to health promotion, and
ethics to leadership, the book offers an exciting guide to the
multiprofessional field. Each entry features: - a snapshot
definition of the concept - a broader discussion addressing the
main issues and links to practice - key points relevant to the
entry - case studies to illustrate the application to practice -
examples of further reading. Highly readable, with clear indexing
and cross referencing, this is an ideal book to turn to for
learning more about key issues in public health practice and
education. The clever structure means the book can be read in its
entirety to support a programme of study or readers can use it to
dip into and update their knowledge of a particular concept. It
meets the validation requirements of all allied health and nursing
training programmes and will also be invaluable for policy-makers
and healthcare practitioners continuing their professional
education.
