New Directions in Health Education: School Health Education and the Community in Western Europe and the United States

Originally published in 1985, this book is a detailed study of the ways of harmonizing school and community policies, strategies and methods in health education, with examples of work achieved in most countries of Western Europe and the USA. It is primarily a guide to ways of overcoming a piecemeal approach to health education in schools and replacing it with more coherent, coordinated and valid forms in which community agencies can play their part.
