Golden Notes for Preventive and Social Medicine, 4/E for MBBS, MD/DNB (PSM) & NEET PG Exam | High-Yield Quick Revision: Case-Based Discussions, Viva Voce, Spots and 85+ Term Comparisons: 1

Golden Notes for Preventive and Social Medicine, 4/E delivers a single, thoroughly revised, bullet-point resource for Community Medicine that minimizes the need for supplementary reference books. Structured for both undergraduate and postgraduate learners, the content aligns with the Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) curriculum recommended by the National Medical Commission (NMC), presenting complex public-health concepts in a concise, student-friendly format built for fast, effective revision. Theory and practical application receive equal weight throughout, spanning epidemiology, biostatistics, national health programs, and public health legislation. This edition updates every relevant indicator with the latest SRS, NFHS and national data, and expands current statistics on major diseases and national programs. The signature chapter “Differences between Similar/Important Public Health Terms” now covers more than 85 groups of terms, and coverage of National Health Programs, government health schemes, and public health guidelines is substantially expanded to present-day, including the One Health Mission, National AYUSH Mission (NAM), National Pandemic Preparedness Plan for Respiratory Viruses (PPV-RV), National Action Plan for Snakebite Envenoming, PM-JANMAN, PM Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana, NAP-AMR 2.0 (2025-2029), drone-based healthcare logistics (i-DRONE), AI in Public Health (IndiaAI Mission), and the basics of Health Technology Assessment. A new chapter on ANOVA joins the existing advanced biostatistics coverage — nonparametric tests, logistic and linear regression, and the Mantel-Haenszel test — reducing the need for separate biostatistics texts, with fresh self-practice exercises added across epidemiology and biostatistics. The Case-Based Discussion chapter is expanded with additional solved scenarios (outbreak investigations with attack-rate and odds-ratio tables, dated antirabies vaccine schedules, growth-chart Z-score plotting, and ASHA/grassroot health-worker behavior-change cases) to sharpen practical-exam performance, and the Basics of Important Communicable Diseases chapter now adds Avian Influenza, Trichuriasis, West Nile Fever, Yellow Fever, and Zika Virus Disease.

Speeds up last-minute recall: Golden Bullets, Famous Acronyms, and 85+ groups of compared terms turn scattered facts into quick, exam-ready revision. Keeps you current on a fast-moving syllabus: fully updated national health programs, government schemes, and public health legislation, including the latest AMR, One Health, AYUSH, and pandemic-preparedness initiatives.
