Global Health 101 (Essential Public Health)

This book was a great tool in my Global Health class. There's lots of tables and charts included, which not only break up the text nicely but provide a lot of useful information. The opening vignettes are really good as well, and help set the tone for the chapter. My favorite part about this textbook was the "Main Messages" section at the end of the chapters. The summary it provided was great and it proved to be a helpful study tool.The Pros:-easy to read-very informative-excellent, up-to-date statistics-summary section at the end of each chapterThe Cons:-the online resource wasn't available when I took the class. I used the previous edition's online quizzes to study, but it certainly would have been ideal if the current online resource was available.

As noted it did not come with the access codes but you can buy those separately on the JB learning website. All the info for that is on the inside of the book. My issue was that apparently this book is usually a two pack: one main book and one with the case studies. It all falls under the one ISBN number per my school. So i was left without the case studies which are required weekly. The case studies book is not sold separately. Luckily my teacher was willing to email them to me to save my butt!! But make sure you wont need that before you buy.

Wife bought for college courses she is taking. Cheaper than buying in the college town we live in.

Actually I have just started reading but I want to know why I can't read this book on my Kindle or the Cloud reader. My only option is my phone. If I had known of the restriction I would not have purchased the book. Or am I just missing something?

The baby on the cover sorta freaked me out. But it was useful when I had to put my computer on a higher surface

Being a "101" book, it was VERY basic. If you have a course where quizzes are based off this material, the answers are relatively easy to locate. Easy to read to get basic knowledge of topics.

I purchased the book in “good condition” and it was near perfect! Unfortunately, I had to return it due to the instructor changing to the newest edition the first week of class. The company reimbursed me with no issues. I will definitely use them in the future and highly recommend.

Textbook for school

Bought it because I had to, glad it was more affordable here than at Uni

Great book, its easy to read. Thank you for the fast shipping!

If I keep having to pay this much for books I'm goin to have to sell a kidney
