Reinventing Public Health: Policies and Practices for a Healthy Nation

Reinventing Public Health offers guidance for translating the growing body of research on the fundamental social, economic and ecological determinants of health into innovative programs and policies to improve the health of Americans. The book offers guidance to public health students and professionals on how to translate the emerging public health system perspective into practice, but it also stimulates public health researchers to look at the broader policy implications of their work. The book also encourages looking at the impacts professionals in other fields such as business, education, urban planning and economic and community development have on the health of a population.
