This book focuses on public health approaches for meeting the requirements of global non-communicable diseases (NCDs) agenda after United Nations high-level meeting on NCD with emphasis on specific requirements of developing countries. It stresses upon prevention and control of NCDs, mainly diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, cancer, stroke, chronic kidney diseases, and mental health which assumed epidemic proportions globally. It also covers challenges and a road map for integration within different NCDs and addressing co-morbidity with communicable diseases. Research methods for promoting research in NCDs have also been emphasized.
With in-depth coverage of the subject, this book attempts to not only bridge the knowledge/information gap in the public health approach of NCDs but fulfills the requirements of program managers, faculty, and postgraduate students in medical and public health schools in developing countries. It is certainly an important resource and standard reference book for short NCD courses with a public health focus.

Verified PurchaseI am a first year student pursuing MBBS. I am really grateful to medioks for being student oriented. I was looking for a book but I couldn't find it anywhere in the market. The high demand of the book made it very costly to afford online but when I found it on medioks, I was so happy to get? the original book at a reasonable cost.
