It provides specific objectives for research in the various stages of injury control planning and implementation, including the types of data needed to reach the objectives. This third edition is fully updated throughout with new studies used as discussion examples. The chapters have been reorganised into more precise topic areas, for ease of reference.

Leon Robertson is a self-taught artist that works with pen, ink and mixed media. He is an author, nature-lover and of course dog-lover. The things people say often inspire him and those phrases become the titles for his art. Life events and social issues often make up the subject and soul of his illustrations. Leon's background in the military and over 15 years of retail merchandising adds to the detail and creativity found in his work. The experience he's had styling windows, mannequins and store displays for luxury retailers, contributes to the sense of design and fashion forwardness of the characters in his ARF & Soul series. Whether through pen and ink or mixed media, he enjoys the journey of creating new characters and sharing their stories. Leon is now based in Little Rock, Arkansas. His new muses are two rescue dogs named Stuart and Dot. Stuart is a black lab and Dot is a border collie husky mix.
