This collection opens up the post war history of public health to
sustained research-based historical scrutiny. Medicine, the Market
and the Mass Media examines the development of a new view of 'the
health of the public' and the influences which shaped it in the
post war years. Taking a broad perspective the book examines
developments in Western Europe, and the relationships between
Europe and the US. The essays looks at the dual legacy of social
medicine through health services and health promotion, and analyse
the role of mass media along with the connections between public
health and industry. This international collection will appeal to
public health professionals, students of the history of medicince
and of heath policy
