Building Health sets out to explore the relationship between public health and the built environment. It includes “position statements” from leading experts in specific aspects of urban design, landscape architecture, engineering and planning, including a piece on British streetscapes written by Ben Hamilton-Baillie (Chapter 3, pp. 24-32). The position statements helped inform a detailed “Blueprint for Action”, available from www.heartforum.org.uk
