Editat de Beth Ann Fiedler
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 iun 2020
Three Facets of Public Health and Paths to Improvements provides an overview on how specific indicators like the environment, culture and behavior play a role in developing improved outcomes for public health in local, regional, national and global health policy and concerns. Divided into three sections, the book examines the impact of the environment and social determinants on public health. It also illustrates the interrelation of these facets as predictors of public health, explores their institutional, organizational and individual impacts, and considers the way multiple stakeholders must engage to improve conditions that impact health.
The book utilizes various research methods, including fundamental, systematics, qualitative and quantitative. Readers can use the information to inform future research and better understand an existing health problem and outcomes.


  • Offers a multisectoral (MSA) approach to understanding environmental, behavioral and social facets of public health
  • Includes an expert analysis (e.g., qualitative, quantitative) approach in relation to policy and existing problems
  • Combines an analytic approach with educational presentation to engage diverse readership

Recenzii

"I find this book less useful for most audiences than other introductory public health textbooks that provide a more cohesive overall organization and a more representative selection of topics (i.e., including both infectious and non-infectious disease risk, prevention, and treatment)." --© Doody’s Review Service, 2021, Trude Bennett, MSW, MPH, DrPH, reviewer, expert opinion
