George Rosen (1910–1977), MD, MPH, PhD, was a professor of health education at the School of Public Health and Administrative Medicine, Columbia University, and the editor of the American Journal of Public Health.
Rosen takes us on a chronological journey from the Greco-Roman ideas of health based on the balance of the four humors, through the plagues and quarantines of the Middle Ages, to the more modern era of political and industrial revolutions, and the health and sanitary reform movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Throughout, he displays his mastery of public health, his understanding of the social context as well as the biological determinants of disease, and his knowledge of social history, sociology, and political philosophy. Conceived in grand style and incorporating a wealth of detailed knowledge, the book is animated by the author’s social and scientific optimism and his deep commitment to public health and progressive reform.
