Klappentext zu „Ambient Temperature and Health in China “
This book focuses on the Chinese health impact induced by ambient temperature variation, especially the epidemiology-based exposure-response relationship with the mortality and morbidity from respiratory, cardiovascular diseases, and mental health among Chinese population. A great number of epidemiological studies have reported that ambient temperature is closely associated with a wide range of health outcomes, such as mortality, cardiovascular and respiratory events, adverse birth outcome, and some infectious diseases, such as dengue fever, malaria. Although a number of epidemiological studies in western countries have evaluated the adverse health effects of ambient temperature, the exposure-response relationship from these countries cannot simply be applied to the Chinese population due to the large differences in temperature profile, exposure pattern, as well as the population vulnerability. This book will provide up-to-date estimates of the magnitude of adverse health effects of ambient temperature in the Chinese population. We hope to provide readers with a comprehensive and organized body of information in the area of Ambient Temperature and health.

Pressezitat
"This book is written for practitioners and planners, especially those planning for future health contingencies in China. Doctors, public health workers, city planners, planners for rural modifications, and other professionals dealing with future needs in healthcare, heat reduction, and providing emergency support in temperature emergencies are the main audience, and they will need this book. ... This book will be very useful to health workers planning for a hotter future." (Eugene N. Anderson, Doody's Book Reviews, 27 September, 2019)
