TY - BOOK T1 - Shifting paradigms in public health from holism to individualism A1 - Yadavendu, Vijay Kumar LA - English PP - New Delhi PB - Springer India YR - 2013 UL - https://tuklas.up.edu.ph/Record/UP-1685523046126317624 AB - This transdisciplinary volume outlines the development of public health paradigms across the ages in a global context and argues that public health has seemingly lost its raison d'tre, that is, a population perspective. The older, philosophical approach in public health involved a holistic, population-based understanding that emphasized historicity and interrelatedness to study health and disease in their larger socio-economic and political moorings.
