POPULATION HEALTH SCIENCE formalizes an emerging discipline at the crossroads of social and medical sciences, demography, and economics--an emerging approach to population studies that represents a seismic shift in how traditional health sciences measure and observe health events.

Bringing together theories and methods from diverse fields, this text provides grounding in the factors that shape population health. The overall approach is one of consequentialist science: designing creative studies that identify causal factors in health with multidisciplinary rigor.

Distilled into nine foundational principles, this book guides readers through population science studies that strategically incorporate:

· macrosocial factors
· multilevel, lifecourse, and systems theories
· prevention science fundamentals
· return on investment
· equity and efficiency

Harnessing the power of scientific inquiry and codifying the knowledge base for a burgeoning field, POPULATION HEALTH SCIENCEarms readers with tools to shift the curve of population health.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book's great strength derives from a clear and cohesive narrative dealing with the complex, messy and dynamic way in which the social context of our lives interacts with our individual biological make-up and behaviours - in the here and now, and even preceding conception. [...] The authors seek to embolden the next generation of epidemiologists not to be deterred by political and practical constraints and to embrace ubiquitous factors - those macrosocial variables which might seem out of reach, almost impenetrable." -- Glenn Salkeld, International Journal of Epidemiology

"A major milestone in this emergent discipline. It should be required introductory reading for students in public health, health policy, health economics, behavioral sciences, and related fields. This not a repackaging of traditional public health methodologies. Rather, it is an emergent discussion of nine unifying theoretical principles of population health science, complete with excellent case studies, that will extend and inform the practice of both public health and preventative medicine." -Julie Louise Gerberding, MD, MPH, Chief Patient Officer and Executive Vice President of Strategic Communications, Global Public Policy, and Population Health, Merck & Co., Inc.; former Director, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
