Promoting Oral Health
This book bears witness to the effectiveness of salt fluoridation for the mass reduction of dental caries in the population. The first part traces the history of salt fluoridation programmes beginning from the earliest attempts in Switzerland in the 1950s to more recent success stories in Europe and the Americas. The second section is a how-to treatise for planning launching running monitoring and evaluating salt fluoridation programmes. The third section presents recommendations for launching a salt fluoridation programme blueprints for proposing and enacting salt fluoridation legislation and detailed standardized research protocols and sample forms for conducting epidemiological research - all of them essential tools for policy makers health planners and health workers.
Salt Fluoridation
Abstract: This publication discusses salt flouridation as a means of preventing dental caries. The state of dental health in the Americas is reviewed and the results of two conferences on salt flouridation are examined. Topics include: salt flouridation in various countries; epidemiologic nutritional, and metabolic aspects of salt flouridation; sociopolitical, economic, and educational aspects of salt flouridation; and monitoring, supervision, and safety of salt flouridation.
Case Studies in Global Health
One of the greatest human accomplishments has been the spectacular improvement in health since 1950, particularly in developing countries. With death rates falling steadily, more progress was made in the health of populations in the past half-century than in many earlier millennia. A careful look at that success can yield important lessons about how to tackle the challenges of HIV/AIDS, child health, and global health inequities in the future. This series of twenty case studies illustrates real-life proven, large-scale success stories in global public health. Drawing from a rich evidence base, the accessible case write-ups highlight experiences in scale-up of health technologies, strengthening of health systems, and the use of health education and policy change to achieve impressive reductions in disease and disability, even in the poorest countries. An overview chapter draws attention to factors that contributed to the successes. Discussion questions help to bring out the main points and provide a point of departure for independent student research.

Molten Salts
Intending these truncated proceedings of the May 2001 meeting to serve as a textbook rather than an ordinary proceedings volume, Gaune-Escard (Institut Universitaire des Systemes Thermiques Industriels, France) presents 16 papers topics of molten salts including electronic properties, light and neutron scattering, thermodynamic modeling, pyrochemistry in the nuclear industry, electrochemical techniques, and molten salt batteries.
