Abstract

A few years ago, the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO) published a book entitled The Crisis of Public Health. In it, the authors suggested that public health as a community has become inward looking, focusing more on obscure methodological questions and less on the contribution of epidemiology to policy. They worried that an often misunderstood field would become even less relevant.
