While you were sleeping

Public health has made our lives safer-often behind the scenes, without our knowledge, that is, "while we were sleeping." In more than sixty success stories, this book powerfully illuminates how public health works. It also profiles dozens of individuals who have made important contributions to safety and health in a range of social arenas. Highlighting examples from the United States and other countries, While we were sleeping will inform a wide audience of readers about what public health actually does and at the same time will inspire a new generation to make the world a safer place.
