Public Health for Dummies
Snigdha Sahai and Devaki C. Yellappa
Public Health for Dummies is a guide that aims to demystify the world of public health with a touch of humor, a splash of raw honesty, and a generous dose of practical insights. This book is not just a roadmap for aspiring public health professionals; it’s a celebration of the diverse ways in which public health impacts our daily lives, whether we realize it or not. Public health often gets overshadowed by the glamorous fields of clinical medicine or high-tech health innovations. But behind the scenes, it is the unsung hero that ensures clean drinking water, advocates for vaccination campaigns, prevents disease outbreaks, and shapes policies that keep our communities safe and thriving. Yet, for many, public health remains an abstract concept, a vague domain filled with jargon and academic rigor. This book is here to change that.
