This wide-ranging study reviews the state of public health
worldwide and presents informed recommendations for real-world
solutions. Identifying the most urgent challenges in the field,
from better understanding the causes of acute diseases and chronic
conditions to reducing health inequities, it reports on
cost-effective, science-based, ethically sound interventions.
Chapters demonstrate bedrock skills essential to developing best
practices, including flexible thinking for entrenched problems,
conducting health impact assessments, and working with
decision-makers. From these current findings come long-term
practice and policy goals for preventing disease, promoting health,
and improving quality of life, both locally and globally. A
sampling of the topics covered: * Health trends of communicable
diseases. * Epidemiology of cancer and principles of prevention. *
Respiratory diseases and health disorders related to indoor and
outdoor air pollution. * Public health gerontology and active
aging. * Migrant and ethnic minority health. * Public health
genomics. A Systematic Review of Key Issues in Public Health offers
graduate students in the discipline a firm grasp on the field as it
presently stands, and a clear set of directions for its potential
future.
