What is Introduction To Public Health about?

<p><I>Introduction to Public Health</I> provides a comprehensive view of the dynamic field of public health and its major functions. It introduces the reader to the major areas that comprise public health such as epidemiology, infectious diseases and the environment.</p> <h3>Marcella H. Sorg</h3> <p>The introduction to public health presented in this book is the product of a team-taught course at SUNY-Albany. The achieved purpose is to increase knowledge about public health as an important part of undergraduate education. This text, well targeted for undergraduates, is authored by a School of Public Health faculty member and science writer. The author defines public health and its governmental, social, and economic frameworks. Potential conflicts between individual freedom and public policy receive attention. Epidemiological methods are presented conceptually rather than numerically, illustrated with bar graphs and simple tables. Research limitations and ethical dilemmas are discussed, as well as the role of vital statistics and public census data. The changed focus from infectious disease and sanitation to chronic disease, genetics, and environmental teratogens is reflected. Atten
