A difficult but valuabe read

Like many documents from the Federal government, this book is not an easy read. The text is dense, complex, and full of jargon. However, it is critical that those in the area of health policy at any level (local, state, or Federal), cultural competence, or health literacy be aware of this outline of public health policy.
