This new revised edition of this book deals with the control and prevention of disease in the tropics. The book outlines the use of health statistics and epidemiology in the context of the tropical environment and important disorders are described with the emphasis on linking their control with the underlying epidemiology. Implementation of these control measures is given in the chapters on the organization of health services, environmental sanitation and health education. An ELBS/LPBB edition is also available.
