Many of the health problems in the developing world can be tackled or
prevented through public health measures such as essential health care,
improved living conditions, water, sanitation, nutrition, immunization, and the
adoption of healthy lifestyles. Public Health is an action guide to improving
public/community health, with a particular focus on low-middle income
countries. It explains public health approaches to developing effective
health services and preventive programmes.
This second edition has been thoroughly updated and new chapters
have been added on health policy, implementation, communicable and
non-communicable disease, quality, and patient safety. Containing real
examples, illustrations, and case histories to bring this important subject to life
for the reader, the book covers the essential clinical services and preventive
programmes including those for tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, malaria, diarrhoeal
diseases, and the integrated management of childhood and adult illnesses.
Practical methods are given for assessing health needs, working with
communities and developing health services, including hospitals, health
centres and community services, particularly mother, neonatal, and those
for child health. Gender, social, and economic influences influences on
communities health are also explored.
Clear language is used throughout the book to describe key public health
skills (such as epidemiology, managing medicines, communicable and
non-communicable disease control, health financing, and implementing
health services and programmes). It will be accessible and highly valuable
to doctors, community nurses, and other health professionals, whether in
training or in practice as well as health officers and managers of health
services and programmes.
a very practical and readable work [and it] is too good to be confined
to the developing world, I intend recommending it to my undergraduates
as a reliable and realistic introduction to improving health in all our
communities... Tropical Doctor
