Summary: "Epidemiology of chronic disease: global perspectives, second edition is the most current and authoritative resource on the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, risk factors, and preventive factors of over 50 major chronic diseases and conditions. This comprehensive text provides readers with an excellent basis for examining current hypotheses regarding chronic disease epidemiology. Organized into five sections, the text begins with an introductory chapter that examines the new public health environment in which chronic diseases have replaced acute infectious conditions concurrent with improved health care and increasing longevity in many populations of the world. Subsequent sections cover cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, major forms of cancer, respiratory tract diseases, metabolic and digestive diseases, musculoskeletal diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and, finally, three infectious diseases that often manifest as chronic conditions."--Back cover
