  • APHA's Publications Board invites APHA members to submit proposals for publication as books. The Board is looking for manuscripts that speak to public health topics, especially to those not previously or not adequately addressed. We need your most innovative work, your dedication, and your enthusiasm to create the best possible public health book program that APHA can offer.
  • If you are intersted in making a submission or if you have a topic in mind, feel free to discuss it with the chair of the Publications Board, Omar Khan, or with the APHA Director of Publications Services, Ellen Meyer. To reach either or to receive guidelines on making a formal submission, call the Association Office at (202) 777-2463; fax (202) 777-2532, or e-mail: ellen.meyer@apha.org
