‘Public Health Issues’ delivers a comprehensive examination of three critical health challenges shaping the 21st century: infectious disease outbreaks, the obesity epidemic, and the mental health crisis. The book uniquely demonstrates how these challenges interconnect and influence each other, particularly evident in its analysis of how pandemic lockdowns affected both mental health and obesity rates globally.
Through a blend of epidemiological data, case studies, and research from the World Health Organization, the book presents complex health information in an accessible format for both healthcare professionals and informed citizens. The work progresses systematically through each health crisis, beginning with an exploration of pandemic threats from historical outbreaks to COVID-19. It then transitions to examining the obesity epidemic, analyzing how societal changes and food industry practices have contributed to worldwide health concerns. The final section addresses the escalating mental health crisis, investigating the impact of technological advancement and social media on psychological well-being.
Throughout each section, readers encounter practical solutions and evidence-based policy recommendations drawn from successful interventions worldwide. What sets this book apart is its holistic approach to public health challenges, integrating perspectives from epidemiology, sociology, economics, and environmental science. The authors examine future trends, including the impact of climate change on disease patterns and the role of artificial intelligence in healthcare, while providing a framework for building resilient public health systems. This comprehensive analysis makes the book an invaluable resource for understanding and addressing contemporary health challenges through a multidisciplinary lens.
