Four professional views of the injury problem-medical, public health, legal, and economic-focus on different causal frameworks, each of which constrains the nature of preventive interventions. When these interprofessional disagreements are coupled with a lack of political cogency, action is likely to be uncoordinated and transient. Strong premises provide a firm foundation for inference, but they also function as barriers to integration and public consensus formation for prevention of injuries.
