[Public health is the study of health promotion and the prevention of disease and injury in whole populations and communities. The scope and coverage of this subject is broad, spanning a range of issues related to health, socioeconomic factors and medical and allied health areas and therefore has relevance to a number of disciplines. Public Health Australia: An Introduction is a comprehensive reference on the basic principles, language, concepts and practice of public health in Australia. In this complete revision of the first edition, James Lawson is joined by Adrian Bauman as co-author in presenting a thorough update of the key areas in public health. In addition to an interesting background on pivotal discoveries in medical history, the book explores epidemiological methods, common conditions, Aboriginal health and physical and mental health. Review of the first edition:'The book will be a very useful standard text for those wishing to study public health or epidemiology.' Peter Baume Head of School of Community Medicine, University of New South Wales, Australia.
