Printed Black Boards. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Third Edition. "This book was written for use in college courses in community hygiene or community health. It has met with a certain amount of success but, because the health picture in any community has changed so much since 1934 when the first edition (entitled COMMUNITY HYGIENE) appeared, it was thought necessary to revise the text completely and rearrange the units to give proper emphasis to the various topics discussed." As such it reflects the opinions and beliefs of public health practice two generations ago, information which, although well expressed, is perhaps more useful to the historian than to the current practitioner. 314 pages, with XI tables, 111 figures, Glossary, and Index; plus xi pages, Preface to the Third Edition, Contents, Illustrations, and Tables; References for Further Study at the end of each chapter. Covers are clean and sound; inked name of prior owner on rfEP; text is clean and sound.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book gives an account of the history of community health efforts in the United States. The author begins by describing the rise of "hygiene" (as public health was initially called) as a medical science in the late 19th century. He then traces the development of public health agencies, the growth of health education, and the evolution of health policy. The book also discusses the major public health challenges of the past century, including infectious diseases, environmental pollution, and chronic diseases. By examining public health through the lens of history, the author is able to show how our understanding of health and disease has changed over time, and how public health policies have adapted to meet new challenges. As such, this book provides a valuable perspective on the importance of the field of public health to society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
