Description and Table of Contents

Description

This compendium of articles provides a clear view of the factors affecting the health of Americans and the role of public health, medical care, and the community in ensuring the nation's health. Building on the success of Lee and Este's previous edition, the new Eighth Edition of The Nation's Health from Leiyu Shi and Douglas Singh is a thorough update that includes all new articles. Like the previous editions, this edition continues its emphasis on the health of the population, the determinants of health, women's health, long-term care, and the precarious set of circumstances faced by the nation's public health and healthcare systems in the 21st century.
