Описание: Using a straightforward systems approach, Turnock's Public Health: What It Is and How It Works explores the inner workings of the complex, modern U.S. public health system-what it is, what it does, how it works, and why it is important. Divided into two parts, Part I of the text focuses on the key elements of public health practice in 21st Century America, while Part II offers case studies designed to emphasize what public health is and how it works in practice.
Collectively, this text gives students an understanding of the key concepts underlying public health as a system and social enterprise while enabling them to practice their knowledge with real-life public health problems, programs, and initiatives. The Seventh Edition introduces the concept of "Public Health 3.0", with its new set of recommendations for updated public health practice in the 21st century and forms a unifying thread through the first six chapters of the book. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act has been updated to reflect the changing political environment.
Additionally, there is a greater emphasis on health equity throughout the text. Additional updates include:* New conceptual frameworks for the public health system, the health systems' role in public health, and public health workforce have been added. * Six new case studies based on contemporary public health challenges including the passage of a "soda tax", state health improvement planning, and leadership in the era of Public Health 3.0* Core MPH competencies are addressed including professionalism, leadership, systems thinking, health policy and management and program planning.
* Additional charts and tables that help clarify concepts and assist visual learners. * Expanded "Outside-the-Book Thinking" exercises and new end-of-chapter discussion questions encourage students to explore chapter concepts in greater depth.

Описание: Like most others, the author has experienced adversity and loss whether personally or by witnessing others' experiences. The author is very sensitive and significantly empathizes with others and animals in different situations. Through the writing of poetry, the author has experienced catharsis in many ways. Tears were genuinely shed with the writing of nearly every poem. The author includes a chapter based on a fictional character known as The Traveler. This diversion from other serious poetry allowed the author to delve into writing fantasy and takes the reader on a different type of journey. No matter the reader's pain or adversity, at least one of the authors poems is sure to resonate and hopefully encourage the reader to seek help or at least realize they are not alone. An old saying is certainly true... "We are more alike than we are different". While the writings discuss life matters such as suicide, hopelessness, adversity, and loss there are also rays of hope, love, inspiration, and peace. For those experiencing suicidal thoughts, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 or text CONNECT to 741741. YOU ARE NEVER ALONE.

Renowned ornithologist Tim Birkhead opens this gripping story as a female guillemot chick hatches, already carrying her full quota of tiny eggs within her undeveloped ovary. As she grows into adulthood, only a few of her eggs mature, are released into the oviduct, and are fertilized by sperm stored from copulation that took place days or weeks earlier. Within a matter of hours, the fragile yolk is surrounded by albumen and the whole is gradually encased within a turquoise jewel of a shell. Soon afterward the fully formed egg is expelled onto a bare rocky ledge, where it will be incubated for four weeks before another chick emerges and the life cycle begins again. "" "" "The Most Perfect Thing" is about how eggs in general are made, fertilized, developed, and hatched. The eggs of most birds spend just 24 hours in the oviduct; however, that journey takes 48 hours in cuckoos, which surreptitiously lay their eggs in the nests of other birds. From the earliest times, the study of birds' ovaries and ova (eggs) played a vital role in the quest to unravel the mysteries of fertilization and embryo development in humans. Birkhead uses birds' eggs as wondrous portals into natural history, enlivened by the stories of naturalists and scientists, including Birkhead and his students, whose discoveries have advanced current scientific knowledge of reproduction.
