The book covers the origins and development of the modern public health system; the relationship of public health to the overall health system; how the system is organized at the federal, state, and local levels; its core functions and how well these are currently being addressed; evidence-based practice and an approach to program planning and evaluation for public health interventions; public health activities such as epidemiological investigation, biomedical research, environmental assessment, and policy development. The nine chapters in Part I of this book aim to present the essentials of public health from a public health system perspective. Chapters 1-7 of Essentials of Public Health, Fourth Edition, are picked up/repurposed in Part I of this text. Part II of the text is a series ten of case studies on public health practice. The case studies in Part II offer a different perspective on public health practice through the lens of real-world events and challenges that complement and supplement the topics covered in Part I. The ten case studies presented, six of which are new to this edition, are designed to emphasize what public health is and how it works in everyday practice"-- Provided by publisher 0aPublic health administration 0aPublic health practice
