The Picture of Health is an essential resource for students and early-career professionals learning the importance of public health storytelling. This introductory book breaks down public health issues through 100 compelling databytes of pictures and text that can stand alone as research summaries compared to table and chart-heavy papers. Through curating these databytes, The Picture of Health shows how public health workers can combine visuals with data to create a larger storyline about the issues, conditions, and pressures that shape the health of populations.
