Reports and publications: two new books on Indigenous health
Oxford University Press has recently published two comprehensive books on Indigenous health. The texts have evolved from the primary health care and public health sectors respectively, and provide complementary perspectives on the health of Indigenous Australians.

Summary
Plain language summary of Indigenous health: February 2004
The summary page has been restructured to provide a plain language summary (view HealthInfoNet plain language summary). The plain language summary includes facts about Australian Indigenous people, common health problems and risk factors, and expenditure on health services for Indigenous people.
The formerly titled 'Summary of Indigenous health' has been renamed 'Overview of Indigenous health' to reflect its length and comprehensive coverage and is now available on the overviews page (view HealthInfoNet overview).
