This book retraces the development of health promotion to show that, far from being a modern innovation, it has existed as a distinct and separate enterprise for as long as biomedicine. Explore factors which have a universal impact on health such as diet, unemployment and tobacco and alcohol use. In this context, the author raises the question - Is health promotion purely a Eurocentric phenomenon or does it have relevance on a global scale and throws open the debate about function and position of health promotion in modern societies.
