Book synopsis

Issues in Public Health is a clear and concise review book aimed at graduate students in public health and policy. Covering the entire field of public health, this book focuses on understanding the most relevant health-related problems, and the health policies to address them. Each topic addressed is the result of a systematic review of the best available evidence concerning the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the different health policy programs addressing the primary (e.g., health promotion through public campaign for smoking education) and secondary (e.g. screening for cervical cancer) prevention interventions available. In each chapter, the following elements are systematically addressed: definitions of the disease/issue, current burden of the disease/issue, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the primary and secondary health policy programs available, identification of the best practice, key elements for decision makers. Also included in each chapter are learning objectives and discussion questions, making this an ideal supplemental text for core courses in public health.
