Textbook of PUBLIC HEALTH AND HYGIENE by Dr. G. Shanmugavel,Dr. Binu George Pdf

Public health is defined as “The science and art of preventing disease”, prolonging life, promoting physical and mental health, sanitation, personal hygiene, control of infectious diseases, and organization of health services. It is also defined as the science of preventive medicine and the preservation of health. The focus of public health interventions is to prevent and manage diseases and other health conditions through surveillance of cases and the promotion of healthy behavior, communities, and aspects relevant to human health in environments. Its aim is to prevent health problems from happening or re-occurring by implementing educational programs, developing policies, administering services, and conducting research. In many cases, treating a disease or controlling a pathogen can be vital to preventing it in others, such as during an outbreak. Due to the policies and actions developed through public health, the 20th century registered a decrease in the mortality rates and a continual increase in life expectancy in most parts of the world.

Public Health: A Very Short Introduction by Virginia Berridge Pdf

Public health is a term much used in the media, by health professionals, and by activists. At the national or the local level there are ministries or departments of public health, whilst international agencies such as the World Health Organisation promote public health policies, and regional organisations such as the European Union have public health funding and policies. But what do we mean when we speak about 'public health'? In this Very Short Introduction Virginia Berridge explores the areas which fall under the remit of public health, and explains how the individual histories of different countries have come to cause great differences in the perception of the role and responsibilities of public health organisations. Thus, in the United States litigation on public health issues is common, but state involvement is less, while some Scandinavian countries have a tradition of state involvement or even state ownership of industries such as alcohol in connection with public health. In its narrowest sense, public health can refer to the health of a population, the longevity of individual members, and their freedom from disease, but it can also be anticipatory, geared to the prevention of illness, rather than simply the provision of care and treatment. In the way public health deals with healthy as well as sick people it is therefore a separate concept from health services, which deal with the sick population. Drawing on a wide range of international examples, Berridge demonstrates the central role of history to understanding the amorphous nature of public health today.
