| dc.description.abstract | This chapter considers recent debates about the nature of public health research. It does this in terms of the methodologies and methods used in public health research and through consideration of ethical issues that have become apparent as lay people have questioned the style and usefulness of public health research. The term 'public health' can mean different things in different contexts. This chapter accepts a view of public health that has been described as the 'new public health' (Ashton and Seymour, 1988; Baum, 2002). It draws on the conceptualisation provided by a number of key international documents, including the World Health Organisation's series of documents and statements on health promotion (most importantly the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (WHO, 1986) and also The People's Charter for Health (People's Health Movement, 2000).
