The usual approach to explaining health definitions would be to give a historical and chronological overview showing the development of the ideas over time to better understand the current position. We present different definitions of health and health-related values. How knowledge relevant to health and well-being is distributed in the digital society, and how the search for this knowledge, ie, navigating knowledge landscapes, influences everyday life and health needs to be clarified. Hence, this article deals with the concepts of health in relation to the present digital environment. This is especially relevant in relation to the 90th anniversary of Zagreb Andrija Štampar School of Public Health and the work of its founder, Andrija Štampar, with ongoing ambition of the School to be on the leading edge of public health understanding in the present society ( 3). It is important to estimate the impact that digital society has on knowledge landscapes and on health. Both health and knowledge need to be understood today as a part of the digital society. A substantial fraction of knowledge landscapes is also located in the digital environment. In digital society, knowledge is well distributed virtually and online. The knowledge landscapes ( ) represent multidimensional environments, which individuals encounter when searching for knowledge, particularly, knowledge related to health ( 1, 2).
