1Cormac Ó Gráda (born in 1945) is an Irish economic historian and professor emeritus of economics at University College Dublin. His research has focused on the economic history of Ireland, Irish demographic changes, and the Great Irish Famine (as well as other famines in different geographies and chronologies), among other topics. Alone or with colleagues, he has addressed issues ranging from the role of science in the Industrial Revolution to plague in seventeenth-century London, and from the Little Ice Age in Europe to the famines of World Wars I and II. He is a prolific scholar, having published dozens of papers as well as several books, the most recent being Famine – a Short History (2009), Eating People Is Wrong (2015), and Famine in European History (2017), co-edited with Guido Alfani.

Celebrating 100 Years 1911–2011
ON ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY, the American Journal of Public Health becomes its own feature, a fascinating public health entity in its own right. Over the century, the Journal has moved with the American Public Health Association (APHA) from Boston, to New York, to Washington, DC, trying on different looks, making treasured friends, and revealing its personality.
EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE
In 1912, the title change from the Journal of the American Public Health Association to the American Journal of Public Health1 set the tone for a tradition of editorial independence, which has persisted over these last 100 years.2 Since its inception, the Journal was intended to stand alone—published by the APHA, but separate from the association. Over the years, the Journal gradually veered away from functioning as an organ for association news. First, from 1933 to 1945, the bulk of association business was compiled in yearbooks published as supplements. Then, in 1971, The Nation's Health, a Chicago periodical absorbed by the Journal in 1928,3 split off to become APHA's official newspaper.4 Thus freed of its past duties, the Journal could become almost exclusively focused on its professional and scientific goals. 5
