Abstract

Abstract This chapter introduces the transdisciplinary model of public health law, which rests on the recognition that public health law is not just the work of lawyers. The chapter explains key terms in the model, including public health law practice, legal epidemiology, and policy surveillance. It also discusses the concept of “mechanisms of legal effect,” which is central to conceptualizing and evaluating the impact of law on health.
