Community Medicine with Recent Advances (3rd edition)

This book deals with community medicine. This is the end result of
teaching community medicine to undergraduate and postgraduate students
for more than three decades. Though the book is written primarily for
undergraduates, it would also be useful for postgraduate students of
community medicine. Considering an ever-increasing demand for a
comprehensive book on community medicine, an attempt has been made to
make the book, student-friendly, teacher-friendly, examiner-friendly and
doctor-friendly. It is written in an understandable way, covering the
entire syllabus prescribed by Medical Council of India (MCI), including
the recent advances. The matter is presented in such a way as to avoid
confusion and to make the reading of the book a pleasurable experience.
Topics like biostatistics would encourage the students to take up the
research activities. The lucid language of the book would facilitate
quick revision. The book is doctor-friendly because it would help the
general practitioners and the rural medical officers in providing not
only curative services, but also preventive and promotive services to
the community at large, motivating them to a healthier, and happier
life.
