PREFACE
The 1992 Annual Review of Public Health continues to meet the important
need, increasingly recognized, to bridge academic public health and pre-
ventive medicine with public health practice and clinical preventive services.
We see growing attention to prevention and to a population-based orienta-
tion to health, health care needs, and costs among health care professionals
and among health policy analysts and policymakers. We believe that the
Annual Review of Public Health fuels this movement with essential sub-
stantive material.
We are working with ‘a committee and the staff of the American College of
Preventive Medicine to help them utilize the articles in the Annual Review of
Public Health in their Continuing Education and Self-Assessment program.
We believe that these volumes can be similarly used by public health schools
and their constituent departments and by public health practitioners and their
organizations.
In organizing the text, we have experimented this year with grouping the
articles by heading. We have long organized the cumulative table of contents
under Age and Disease Specific, Behavioral Aspects of Health, Environmen-
tal Health, Epidemiology/Biostatistics, and Health Services. The task is
complicated by the fact that certain topics and certain articles deliberately
combine public health areas, such as epidemiology and health services, or
epidemiology and environmental health. This year, we have added the head-
ing of Public Health Practice to give greater visibility to our commitment to
bridging academia and practice, and to stimulate suggestions of topics and
authors from a broadened array of sources, especially our readers. We
welcome your comments.
Despite increased attention to developing country topics and more in-
vitations to authors from other countries, we have not used the heading
International Health. These articles cut across the headings, and a separate
heading would be confusing. Also, we believe that many, if not most, of our
articles have international relevance. Do look through the cumulative table of
contents at the end of this text and “browse” beyond your own specialty field.
