"""Population-Based Public Health Clinical Manual: The Henry Street Model for Nurses is a dazzling adventure through the foundational concepts and processes of community/population health practice. The chapters are brilliantly arranged for ease of navigation with key points, evidentiary examples and applications, and chapter activities. Most importantly, the authors prepare student learners not only to embrace the societal challenges and social determinants impacting population health-including structural racism, social justice, and health equity-but to advocate for change and develop policies that directly impact these injustices. A significant work in preparing the next generation of community/population health nursing leaders!"" - Krista Jones, DNP, MSN, RN, PHNA-BC, ELAN FellowDirector, Urbana Regional CampusClinical Associate Professor, Department of Population Health Nursing ScienceUniversity of Illinois Chicago ""As a public health professional with working experience in low-income and high-income countries for over a decade, I highly recommend this textbook to everyone looking to enhance their understanding of population-based health. This book is a golden source of comprehensive and current information on critical population-based health issues, including social justice. Its clear writing style and userfriendly layout facilitate easy comprehension of complex concepts. The real-world case studies and examples add practical insights and bring the material to life."" - Modupe Adewuyi, PhD, MSN/MPH, PHNA-BC, CHESAssociate ProfessorKennesaw State University ""Patricia Schoon and Carolyn Porta have done it again! This 4th edition is an invaluable resource for PHN educators, students, and practitioners. Authoritative and practical, this volume reflects the authors' solid understanding of public health nursing practice today. The reality-based insights and much-needed guidance about population health and public health nursing place this book in the forefront of educational resources for public health and community health nursing educators."" - Marla E. Salmon, ScD, RN, FAANProfessor, Nursing and Global HealthAffiliate Professor, Governance and Public PolicyUniversity of Washington ""The text is based on the historical public health model of the Henry Street Consortium, which reflects a unique dynamic practice and commitment to public health. The focus on population health and social justice, so critical to public health practice with families and communities, is a natural outcome of working with people in their own environment. I was pleased to read how nicely respecting human differences is presented-not as something to be judged but rather appreciated, recognizing the wealth of diversity in populations. The dynamite chapter on population health sets the stage for public health systems leadership addressing population health management and case management, providing a unique synthesis toward the end of the text."" - Pamela N. Clarke, PhD, MPH, RN, FAANRetired Professor, Fay W. Whitney School of NursingUniversity of Wyoming"
