In this new edition, the editor and contributors update and expand on the concepts of global maternal and child health (MCH) issues that affect reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH) that were introduced in the first edition of the textbook. Contributors include authors from various continents of the world aimed at capturing diverse experiences and rich perspectives on emerging issues in global RMNCAH.
Maternal and child health, the public health discipline that deals with the promotion and protection of the health of women, children, adolescents, families, and communities, has been the core of international cooperation in health since the early 18th century. Today, a significant proportion of the activities undertaken by international development agencies and professionals remain focused on protecting and improving the health and well-being of women, children, adolescents, and families. With increasing globalization and escalating global poverty, application of public health principles to the solution of health problems that transcend national boundaries has become an issue of heightened interest among scholars of public health, national governments, non-governmental organizations, and bilateral agencies. Acquisition of knowledge and the development of competencies to address global MCH issues have become essential for health professionals, whether they practice in high-income settings or in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This textbook addresses this need.
Among the topics covered that are new to the second edition:
- Impact of climate change on MCH populations
- Life course perspectives on MCH
- Progress and challenges towards the survive, thrive, and transform strategy
- Non-communicable diseases and reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health
- Reproductive health in maternal and adolescent populations
- Impact of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases on MCH
- Sleep health in MCH
Maternal and Child Health, Vol. 3: Global Challenges, Programs, and Policies, 2nd Ed., which focuses on interventions and health service strategies as well as emerging issues, trends, and future directions, serves as an invaluable reference material for students and instructors seeking information on critical issues in global MCH, frontline professionals desiring information on evidence-based MCH programs and policies, and policymakers seeking a crucial appraisal of priorities for research and development in the field.

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
