‘The book is a welcome addition to the literature for professionals and researchers interested in the art and science of defining, designing, implementing, and evaluating structural public health programs. ... This outstanding book should be required reading for those interested in enhancing their understanding of the complexities involved in structural and environmental approaches in public health. Summing Up: Essential. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners.’ – D.E. Bill, West Chester University, in CHOICE, May 2014
‘Structural approaches are essential to advance population health, and yet they are often under-resourced and less promoted as compared to medical interventions. This book uniquely brings together the experience of some of the world's experts in this field, covering many aspects of public health’ – Peter Piot, Professor of Global Health and Director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK
‘This book is a must for anyone interested in understanding public health prevention and intervention science in general and structural interventions in particular. The chapters represent a multitude of disciplinary and international perspectives that cover the complex theoretical underpinnings of the field as intelligently as they do its implications for the design and evaluation of specific interventions. Together, the chapters remind us that the successful promotion of public health, both globally and locally, urgently requires solutions that attend to inequality within and between societies, and identify a range of concrete directions and opportunities for developing such solutions.’ – Kim M. Blankenship, Professor and Director of the Center on Health, Risk and Society, American University, USA
