Klappentext

Provides insights into advancing the One Health approach to improve health and food safety worldwide One Health Integration: Global Perspectives on Animal Health and Sustainable Agriculture provides a comprehensive exploration of the One Health framework, which recognizes the interdependence of human, animal, and environmental well-being. Weaving together scientific insights, policy perspectives, and case-based applications, the book is an essential resource for understanding and addressing today's complex health challenges and responding to the rising prevalence of zoonotic diseases, environmental degradation, and food security concerns. Drawing on diverse regional experiences, the authors supply practical roadmaps for implementing One Health initiatives across varied settings. The detailed chapters cover topics such as veterinary education, antimicrobial resistance, food safety, and ethical considerations in the one health approach and integrate foundational concepts with real-world case studies, demonstrating how collaborative approaches can mitigate threats such as zoonotic outbreaks, livestock-related environmental pressures, and global food system vulnerabilities. Throughout the book, the authors showcase successful models and critically examine a variety of urgent challenges. Addressing how education, practice, and policy can be aligned to protect human and animal health, One Health Integration:

• Offers interdisciplinary insights connecting veterinary science, agriculture, and environmental health
• Contains comparative case studies, regional examples, and evidence-driven interventions for improving health outcomes across species
• Provides frameworks for integrating One Health principles into veterinary curricula
• Analyzes policy challenges and opportunities in sustainable livestock production

• Demonstrates applied research through practical models and field-based examples One Health Integration: Global Perspectives on Animal Health and Sustainable Agriculture is ideal for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in veterinary science, public health, agriculture, and ecology programs, particularly those taking courses in zoonotic diseases, animal health, or sustainable agriculture. It is also a timely and reliable reference for professionals in veterinary practice, animal husbandry, livestock production, and public health policy.
