Résumé :
|
What Liburd and colleagues provide in this edition is a framework for all practitionersÖinvolved in diabetes prevention and control. The recommendations and tools provided here are key to the success of future research and programmatic efforts. This book includes in-depth analyses of many community-based interventions which serve African-American, Hispanic-atino American, Asian American, and Native American populations. The author also provides suggestions for community-based initiatives to reduce the "obesogenic" environment many minorities live in. (From the abstract)
