You may recall receiving the request below for materials to include in the Annotated Bioliogrpahy that we are preparing for the Fourth International Conference on Health Promotion to take place in Indoneia in July. To date, we have received six responses which we appreciate. If you have something that you think should be included, could you please forward it to us by June 2. Thank you for your help in this matter. A bibliography of selected health promotion and health education resources is being prepared for the upcoming conference in July 1997. Collaborating Centres and others in the field of health promotion are invited to submit useful references and short summaries for inclusion in the bibliography. Recently published books, government documents, journal articles and reports are welcome as well as World Wide Web sites. Emphasis will be placed on materials published in the last 3 years. In addition to being available in print form, the bibliography will be set up as a Web site. As such it will be accessible to participants at the conference and others in the health promotion community. Three sample references follows. Please use the same format. Technical report: Canada's health promotion survey: technical report / Irving Rootman, et al, editors. Ottawa: Ministry of Supply and Services Canada, 1988. 243 p. (English only) This report describes in detail the major findings of Canada health promotion survey conducted in 1985 by Statistics Canada for the Health Promotion Directorate of Health and Welfare. The major finding is that continued impressive gains in health promotion and disease prevention will require more complex, targeted and differentiated strategies for different groups in society. A useful resource document for health promotion planners and also a good example of a national survey. Journal article: Good life-styles for good health / Walter W. Holland & Ellie Breeze. World Health Forum 1986;7(4):380-386. (English, French and Spanish). This article underlines the necessity to encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles in order to control non-communicable disease both in developing and developed countries. It provides guidelines for a strategy to promote health and reduce risks in every sector of society. Book: Free to be foolish: Politics and health promotion in the United States and Great Britain / Howard M. Leichter. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1991. 281 p. (English only) This comparative study of British and American health promotion policies addresses the current debate over the role of government in two post-industrial democratic societyies in helping people secure both good health and personal freedom. It suggests that despite common public health challenges, variations in culture values and political structure have produced differences in the timing and nature of the health policy response in each country.
