Produktbeschreibung
The book is enriched with numerous examples, addressing diverse issues ranging from the control of infectious diseases-especially vaccine-preventable diseases-to nutritional aspects such as the prevention of iron-deficiency anemia. It also discusses efforts to improve maternal and fetal outcomes and examines diseases and misalignment in rhythms resulting from lifestyle and behavioral changes in modern times. Additionally, it highlights the emerging challenges in public health, including the control and eradication of newer diseases and the implications of increased life expectancy, leading to a more significant burden of disability-adjusted life years. The book focuses on overcoming these challenges through a synergistic approach that combines traditional practices with modern science and technology. This, in turn, aims to reduce risks through evidence-based interventions.

This book covers the evolution of public health from the era of infectious diseases to the contemporary challenges of chronic diseases. It explores the rise and fall of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in developed countries. It delves into developing nations' dual challenges in combating infectious diseases (CDs) and NCDs.

This book examines the intersection of public health and health practices, highlighting how legal frameworks shape policies and outcomes, while underscoring the role of legal principles in tackling health challenges and advancing health equity.
