The first set of chapters introduces defines and describes the public health system, provide concepts and tools for measuring health in populations, characterizes the relationship of the public health system with medical care and other elements of the overall health system, and identifies government’s unique contributions through federal, state, and local public health agencies.

With its clear, reader-friendly language and helpful learning tools such as chapter exercises and discussion questions, this is the ideal text to prepare your students for a career in public health.

What can i say, if you need the book for class there is no way around it. I personally found the book pretty darn boring and a pain to read. Luckily in my class the book was not entirely required, so i avoided reading it most of the time and still got an A. Plus most of the material in the book seems like common sense or maybe because i have learned most of this material in other classes.

I got this book for school. It was not enjoyable and I would not recommend it if your looking for just something to read. If you have to get it, than make sure there's lots of coffee for you to drink.
