Rose's Strategy of Preventive Medicine

The Strategy of Preventive Medicine by Geoffrey Rose, first published in 1993, remains a key text for anyone involved in preventive medicine.

Rose' s insights into the inextricable relationship between ill health, or deviance, in individuals and populations they come from, have transformed our whole approach to strategies for improving health.

His personal and unique book, based on many years research, sets out the case that the essential determinants of the health of society are to be found in its mass characteristics.
