Summary
With their textbook Public Health, Gottfried Roller and Manfred Wildner have created an excellent compendium. It helps to understand that state actors, state authorities and local authorities themselves play an important role in prevention and health promotion in Germany. In this respect, this book is suitable for complementing the (only half) picture of a corporatist healthcare system with the state-organised area of public healthcare.
