5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for the dental public health professional, September 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Dentistry, Dental Practice, and the Community (Paperback)

Burt and Eklund have taken a good thing and made it better. The new edition of "Dentistry, Dental Practice, and the Community" maintains the attention to detail and liberal referencing that was found in the 4th edition, but it adds tables and charts that are easier to read and tighter organization of the chapters such that common topics flow together more readily. Congratulations on a job well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars The real community dentistry in most of the world, May 25, 1999

By	[e-mail] Prof. Carlos Alfredo Lou... (Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dentistry, Dental Practice, and the Community (Paperback)

All other books like european books about the subject, are produced on a view embarassed for central, uniform and national health plans. This book make present in literature, the reality of many kinds of dental services delivery, like the state and private market. This aproach is more close with the real situation for most countries, speciality in plural societys.

For this reasons, that book is a powerfull toll for all Dentists interessed in knowing "how is" the actual basis that are building a future of our profession.
