Feedback:
In the past, health was defined simply as the absence of disease; health was measured by monitoring the
Te
mortality and morbidity of a group. Over the past century, however, the focus of health has shifted to
disease prevention, health promotion, and wellness. The World Health Organization (2013) defines health
ch
as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or

infirmity." The gains in child health have been huge, but, unfortunately, these gains are not shared equally
among all children.

were high and life expectancy was short. Over the years the health of children received more and more
attention, leading to a better understanding of sources of illness and improvements in sanitation, water,
and nutrition. As a result, by the late twentieth century unintentional injuries rather than infectious
diseases had become the leading cause of death for children older than 1 year old.
Origin: Chapter 1, 3
