Biografisk notat
Franklin White is President of Pacific Health & Development Science, Inc., in Victoria, British Columbia. Lorann Stallones is Professor of Psychology and Director of the Colorado Injury Control Research Center at Colorado State University. John M. Last is Emeritus Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Ottawa.Global Public Health: Ecological Foundations is stunning proof of the power of global thought and focused scholarship. It is simultaneously ambitious in scope and simple in approach, and the result is the definitive textbook for anyone studying public health at any level. I warmed to this book from the first page and could not put it down.

People across the globe are more connected now than ever before. This important new work by White, Stallones, and Last clearly articulates the power of this connectedness and the potential to improve health across the levels of an ecological framework. The authors effectively communicate the core principles of public health and relate these to a variety of critical global health issues.
