Textbook international health

This excellent text brings together information that students and professionals working in the wide variety of disciplines concerned with international health will find in no other single source. It synthesizes historical, cultural, environmental, economic, and political considerations to provide a comprehensive, global overview of the many factors that determine the health of individuals and populations. The major determinants of health status in all regions of the world are discussed, and interventions undertaken at community, national and international levels are described. Worldwide campaigns against major diseases such as smallpox, malaria and AIDS are examined for elements determining success and failure. International campaigns for primary health care, child survival, safe motherhood, diarrheal disease control, and childhood immunization are described and analyzed. Attention is also given to the interpretation of numerical data, to the impact of science and technology, to ethical and policy considerations, and to the organization and functions of national health services and multinational agencies. While the book began as a revision of Basch's widely read International Health (Oxford University Press, 1978), its scope expanded beyond the earlier volume to provide a much fuller picture of the field of international health.
