Chapter 7 Annotations

Chapter seven basically sums up the whole book, basically stating we do not know where the future medicine is going to take us and we do not really have a definition for public health still. This was a main concept in the first chapter of the book, so there is definitely some circular reasoning there. Throughout the reading the definition of public health was lingering the whole time. In chapters 2-6 it was unimportant to know the exact definition, however it was important to know how public health has changed over the years. In chapter 1 and 7 it seems more detrimental to figure out what in the world the definition of public health may be. However, chapter seven too decides that knowing the definition is not important and then proceeds to kind of sum up what all has happened in the public health world and how they were overcome and treated. Chapter 7 also summarizes the ethics involved over the years which is one thing that has changed drastically. It also discusses the education and the effect that it has on the public and how it can help the health of the public. More terminology is coming into play and medical professionals are able to focus on a targeted group rather than having to focus on everybody because they are all sick. Institutions to educate people are on the rise and are provided in more locations that are accessible for those who would like to pursue a career in the medical field per say. Public health changes are being recorded on how it works best, with what focus. This is a reason public health is always changing and we are all using the past as a reference to improve the future.
