      I am well acquainted with the author of this book New Horizons in Modeling and Simulation for Social Epidemiology & Public Health, Dr. Daniel Kim, and the book’s contributors including Dr. Ross Hammond. As the former director of the Systems Science Program in the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), I have had a bird's eye view of this emerging area which I have written extensively about elsewhere (Mabry and Kaplan, 2013; Mabry et al., 2008, 2013).

      The NIH and OBSSR have supported a variety of educational opportunities in systems science, such as the Symposia Series on Systems Science and Health (2007; https://www.preventionresearch.org/conferences/training/2007‐symposia‐series‐on‐systems‐science‐and‐health/) and the week‐long immersion course, Institute on Systems Science and Health ( ISSH ), which ran annually from 2009 to 2012. More recently, the NIH has funded short courses such as Dynamic Systems Science Modeling for Public Health (PIs: Bruch, Hammond, Osgood; healthmodeling.org). However, one of the noteworthy gaps in the field is adequate instructional material in book form devoted to systems science applications to public health.
