Description
The Oxford Textbook of Global Public Health is the ultimate resource on the subject of public health and epidemiology. The sixth edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, offering a global and comprehensive perspective on wide-ranging public health needs and priorities in modern health care.
The sixth edition, available both in print and online, retains its approach of dividing the complex, dynamic subject of public health into three topics. ‘The Scope of Public Health’ discusses the development of the discipline, determinants of health and disease, public health policies, and law and ethics. Next, the textbook focuses on ‘The Methods of Public Health,’ including the main science behind the discipline – epidemiology. Finally, ‘The Practice of Public Health’ examines specific public health problems and the options for prevention and control. As well as identifying these issues by system or disease, there is also an awareness of the unique needs of particular population groups.
User’s Reviews
Review from previous edition: “…a must in any library of a public health department…we do need the Oxford Textbook of Public Health, and we are grateful to the editors who collect and synthesize the amounts of knowledge included in these three volumes.”
“The new edition…continues an admirable tradition of comprehensive and authoritative overviews of contemporary public health research and practice. This textbook will continue to be an invaluable resource for practioners, researchers and students working across the range of the discipline.”
