Public Healthy, (www.publichealthy.com)
Is this book ‘the one’ that people sitting the Part A have been yearning for? Having spent a few weeks looking through Mastering Public Health, comparing it with my experiences of Part A and my revision notes, I would say an (almost) unqualified ‘yes’.

Mastering Public Health is intended as a ‘one stop shop’ textbook for people sitting their MFPH Part A - something which didn’t previously exist. For those lucky individuals taking MRCP and many of the other Royal College exams there have been comprehensive revision texts available for years, but here in the world of public health the notion has taken a while to catch on. Fortunately Lewis and colleagues have brought the field to its senses, with a succinct yet comprehensive guide to the whole Part A syllabus.

Customer Review, Amazon.co.uk
"Invaluable for your Part A exam - 4 Stars"

Written in conjunction with an international team of editors Mastering Public Health is a revision text that will be of use to candidates of post-graduate public health examinations across the world. The book follows the UK Faculty's Part A examination syllabus (also used by the Australian Faculty of Public Health). This consists of five areas of public health knowledge plus a sixth section relating to public health skills. The appendices offer the reader revision strategies, essay frameworks and lists of public health names and concepts.

As well as those sitting post-graduate exams and those revising for professional examinations in public health, this book will also be of use for continual professional development and as a quick, practical reference text for practitioners of the speciality.
