The Journal of Public Health focuses on current theory and practice within the whole spectrum of public health. We aim to promote high standards of public health practice by publishing readable papers of high scientific quality. The journal looks in depth at the causes of disease and, in the light of this, how to prevent ill-health and promote good health. Disease trends are also monitored, as are outbreaks of environmental hazards. The journal also covers planning, provision and evaluation of health services.
