Summary
This chapter provides a high-level overview of the following 19 Chapters, which together create the 2nd Edition of the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease. We encapsulate not only the vastly expanded evidence base and mechanistic understanding underlying DOHaD but also the challenges faced when trying to embed life course ‘thinking’ into environmental, social, educational and health care policies.
