Urbanization and its implications for child health : potential for action.

Psychotherapie in der Sowjetunion : Methoden und Perspektiven / Wolf Lauterbach ; Kommentar von R.A. Zacepickij.

The danger of deterioration of race from the too rapid increase of great cities / by John Edward Morgan.

"In Urban Sprawl and Public Health, three of the nation's leading public health and urban planning experts take a comprehensive look at the interface of urban planning, architecture, transportation, community design, and public health. They summarize the evidence linking adverse health outcomes with sprawling development, and outline the complex challenges of developing policy that promotes and protects public health. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with issues of public health, urban planning, transportation, architecture, or the environment."--Jacket.

xxi, 338 pages : black and white illustrations ; 24 cm

Urban sprawl and public health : designing, planning, and building for healthy communities / Howard Frumkin, Lawrence Frank, Richard Jackson.

"In articles from experts around the world, this report presents a comprehensive look at current trends in global economics and sustainability, a policy toolbox of clear solutions to some of our most pressing environmental and human challenges, and a path for reforming economic institutions to promote both ecological health and prosperity."--P. [4] of cover.

State of the world 2012 : moving toward sustainable prosperity : a Worldwatch Institute report on progress toward a sustainable society / Erik Assadourian and Michael Renner, project directors ; Linda Starke, editor.

Planetary health : human health in an era of global environmental change / Dr Jennifer Cole.

This film addresses overpopulation in the Philipines and seeks to motivate public health and other government workers to re-inforce the benefits of reducing family sizes. Throughout there are scenes of impoverished urban life with the stress made on the pressure of finite resources whether health, education or quality of life. Finally, President Marcos outlines the challenge ahead which would involve tackling the Catholic church's explicit lack of support for contraception as well as the desire for large families.
