Description: | Public Health is defined as health promotion by population related measures. This is in contrast to the aims of medicine with its diagnostics and therapy which focus on the individual patient’s health. Approaches to Public Health are apparently developing at different speeds in the various countries of the world. But there is a common feeling that the improved health of most of our people can only be achieved if aspects of prevention and health promotion are considered and practiced more successfully than curing the subjects’ symptoms and diseases. |
