- catalog abstract ""This book is the first to provide a comprehensive overview of the concepts, theory, techniques, and applications of HIA to aid all those preparing projects or carrying out assessments. It draws on examples and thinking from many different disciplines and many parts of the world. It identifies the areas of agreement and the questions remaining unanswered. It maps a confused field and signposts possible directions for future progress." "Health Impact Assessment is intended to help decision makers in all areas foresee the consequences of their decisions, to ensure the consequences are considered and reduce the risk of population health being damaged through some indirect and unintended consequence of a decision." "This book is a practical handbook for those preparing the assessments be they epidemiologists, environmentalists, health economists, or public health specialists, as well as serving as a conceptual guide for policy makers, decision makers, and planners at national and international level."--BOOK JACKET.".
