{"product_id":"pioneers-in-public-health","title":"Pioneers in Public Health","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe public health movement involved numerous individuals who made the case for change and put new practices into place. However despite a growing interest in how we understand history to inform current evidence-based practice, there is no book focusing on our progressive pioneers in public health and environmental health. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book seeks to fill that gap. It examines carefully selected public and environmental health pioneers who made a real difference to the UK’s health, some with international influence. Many of these pioneers were criticised in their life-times, yet they had the strength of character to know what they were doing was fundamentally right and persevered, often against many odds.
