15-page analysis examines the health reform legislation signed in March
of 2010. It offers a brief 100-year history of U.S. health reform, walks
the reader through President Obama’s eight principles to guide
the development of health reform, and provides details and a schedule
for implementation of health insurance restructuring.

Safety and Public Health.
From the population perspective as well for individual patient care,
drug testing and monitoring for safety has become an important Public
Health issue. This new chapter examines the FDA drug approval process
and market surveillance, describes recent changes in FDA law, and analyzes
options for increasing the safety of drugs.
These original chapters written by Richard
Riegelman maintain the same, consistent chapter structure as Public
Health 101. Order bundle ISBN: 978-1-4496-0149-2

code for the online chapters is inserted into each packaged copy of Public
Health 101.
From clean drinking water,
to seat belts, to immunizations, the impact of public health on every
individual is undeniable. For undergraduates, an understanding of the
foundations of public health is an essential step toward becoming an educated
citizen. Public
Health 101: Healthy People––Healthy Populations
provides a big-picture, population perspective on the determinants of
health and disease and the tools available to protect and promote health.
It examines the full range of options for intervention including use of
the healthcare system, the public health system, and society-wide systems
such as laws and taxation.
Through case studies, vignettes,
and extensive examples, readers will come away with a clear understanding
of how public health affects them in their everyday lives. They will learn
and apply frameworks for thinking about the issues of public health and
gain a deeper understanding about the health news they are exposed to
each day.
