Reviews

The strengths of this text are extensive. The book never loses sight of prevention as the ultimate goal in public health and as the ideal future for the field. The cultural aspects that are so often neglected in the literature are comprehensively discussed in an opening chapter and referenced throughout. The epidemiologic models that frame each chapter are at the forefront of current research, particularly the use of the life?course approach. Finally, the sections and chapters are well coordinated, with little overlap or redundancy. * American Journal of Epidemiology * In this short review, I can only briefly communicate the content of the many excellent chapters by choosing some examples to convey the scope of this volume... The authors deserve our appreciation for a masterful volume that will do much to advance understanding of mental health as an essential public health challenge. * Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare *

a meaningful contribution that serves as a thorough introduction to a relatively new and growing field. It is one of only a few such books and stands out as one that provides a well-researched, systematic approach to public mental health and has been written by authors who are leaders in the field. -- Matthew Koster, DO, MBA, Doodys In this short review, I can only briefly communicate the content of the many excellent chapters by choosing some examples to convey the scope of this volume...
