Abstract:	Turnock's Public Health: What It Is and How It Works takes a clear, systems-based approach to examining the modern U.S. public health system-its structure, functions, operations, and significance.The book is divided into two parts: Part I covers the fundamental components of public health practice in the 21st-century United States, while Part II presents case studies that illustrate public health in action. Together, these sections provide students with a comprehensive understanding of public health as both a system and a social enterprise, equipping them to apply their knowledge to real-world public health challenges, programs, and initiatives.Offering the latest data, updated tables and new figures, the Eighth Edition also explores current concepts and trends including the 10 Essential Public Health Services (EPHS), Healthy People 2030, and health equity in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
