HEALTHY CITIES: PUBLIC HEALTH THROUGH URBAN PLANNING
Book ID/图书代码： 04289515B77786
English Summary/英文概要： Mounting scientific evidence generated over the past decade highlights the significant role of our cities’ built environments in shaping our health
and well-being. In this book, the authors conceptualize the ‘urban health niche’ as a novel approach to public health and healthy-city planning that integrates the diverse and multi-level health-determinants present in a city system.
The authors trace the origins of public health and city planning, drawing upon the shifting paradigms of epidemiology. Advanced network analysis techniques are employed to examine multi-scale associations between individual-level health outcomes and built environment features such as density, land-use mix and road network configuration.
Healthy Cities will prove a fascinating read for an interdisciplinary body of scholars, practitioners and policymakers within the domains of public policy, regional and urban studies, urban planning, spatial epidemiology, health geography, sociology, public health and psychology.
