"Life-course epidemiology" has added a further dimension to the understanding of the social determinants of health by showing an association between early-life socioeconomic conditions and adult health-related behaviors, morbidity, and mortality. Sensitive and critical periods of development, such as the prenatal period and early childhood, present significant opportunities to influence lifelong health. Yet simply intervening in the health system is insufficient to influence health early in the life course. Community-level approaches to affect key determinants of health are also critical. Many of these issues were raised in the 1995 National Academies book, Children's Health, the Nation's Wealth. The present volume builds upon this earlier book with presentations and examples from the field. Focusing on Children's Health describes the evidence linking early childhood life conditions and adult health; discusses the contribution of the early life course to observed racial and ethnic disparities in health; and highlights successful models that engage both community factors and health care to affect life course development. 606 $aChild health insurance 606 $aChild health services 606 $aChild health services$xFinance 606 $aFederal aid to child health services 615 0$aChild health insurance. 615 0$aChild health services. 615 0$aChild health services$xFinance. 615 0$aFederal aid to child health services. 676 $a362.1989200097 701 $aWizemann$b Theresa M$0890630 701 $aAnderson$b Karen$f1948-$01810038 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bRoundtable on Health Disparities. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Children, Youth, and Families. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969354403321 996 $aFocusing on children's health$94362733 997 $aUNINA
