Reviews for Modern Environments and Human Health: Revisiting the Second Epidemiological Transition
"The volume serves as a critical step towards cross-disciplinary communication and shows promise that future research on epidemiologic transitions will draw from an even wider array of cross-disciplinary perspectives (e.g., Klaus, 2014)." (American Journal of Human Biology, 9 February 2015)
