內容簡介
Maxcy-Rosenau-Lastpublichealth and amp;preventivemedicine自1913年首次出版以來已有百年歷史。該教材不僅涵蓋了20世紀公共衛生與預防醫學的大量知識,而且還包含了21世紀以來的新進展。我們發現,在每一次修訂時選擇恰當的內容變得越來越困難。傳統的公共衛生與預防醫學問題仍然存在,公共衛生與預防醫學領域新的知識、研究成果和實踐信息日新月異,新發疾病的出現也在不斷更新和拓展我們的知識構架;新發微生物帶來的重要公共衛生學意義已經凸顯;行為科學在健康促進、衛生行為規範和健康宣教中發揮越來越重要的作用;新材料、新化學物和新技術的出現,在帶來科技的進步的同時也造成了職業環境和其他環境的污染;預期壽命的延長使得退行性疾病預防、綜合的醫療保健計畫和其他疾病預防變得越來越重要;對於人口增長和生態脆弱可能導致的公共衛生困境還不能完全預期;同時,低出生率和人口老齡化正在挑戰當前的公共衛生和預防醫學體系。人類衝突目前也成為一個公共衛生問題,社會和“非自然因素”在其中所起的作用越來越受到人們的關注;加強公共衛生實踐和臨床衛生服務的融合應該受到更多的重視。《BR》 本改寫版在McGraw-HillEducation出版的第15版Maxcy-Rosenau-Lastpublichealth and amp;preventivemedicine的基礎上完成,我們盡一切努力更新信息,獲取新知識。
