The anthrax incidents following the 9/11 terrorist attacks put the spotlight on the nation?s public health agencies, placing it under an unprecedented scrutiny that added new dimensions to the complex issues considered in this report. The Future of the Public?s Health in the 21st Century reaffirms the vision of Healthy People 2010, and outlines a systems approach to assuring the nation?s health in practice, research, and policy. This approach focuses on joining the unique resources and perspectives of diverse sectors and entities and challenges these groups to work in a concerted, strategic way to promote and protect the public?s health. Focusing on diverse partnerships as the framework for public health, the book discusses: * The need for a shift from an individual to a population-based approach in practice, research, policy, and community engagement. * The status of the governmental public health infrastructure and what needs to be improved, including its interface with the health care delivery system. * The roles nongovernment actors, such as academia, business, local communities and the media can play in creating a healthy nation. Providing an accessible analysis, this book will be important to public health policy-makers and practitioners, business and community leaders, health advocates, educators and journalists.
