Beskrivning
Although the environment has long been recognized as a key factor for human health, the linkages between infectious diseases and urban environments are not well known. Consideration of infectious disease prevention and control in contemporary urban planning has largely been neglected. The proposed book discusses in a multidisciplinary manner the role of urban living environments and prevention of infectious disease epidemic and thus, pandemic outbreaks in history and presently, in the post-Covid era. From historical studies of urban outbreaks to present issues and charting pathways into the future urban planning, the edited book curates a collection of timely research from the fields of environmental research, environmental health, health history, information studies, public health, and urban planning. The book offers research-based insights into the linkages between urban living environments and human health, serving as inspiration for researchers, students and professionals.
