Description
Thoroughly revised and updated to reflect changes in health promotion practice, policy and research, The Challenge of Promoting Health explores the potential at the local level for communities to be involved in promoting their own health and examines the role of statutory agencies and other organisations in the making of healthy public policy. Written in an engaging and accessible style, this book will be of continued interest to all those committed to promoting health, especially those working in the health and social care fields.
