Note(s) : "Bringing together the experience, perspective and expertise of Paul Farmer, Jim Yong
Kim, and Arthur Kleinman, Reimagining Global Health provides an original, compelling
introduction to the field of global health. Drawn from a Harvard course developed
by their student Matthew Basilico, this work provides an accessible and engaging framework
for the study of global health. Insisting on an approach that is historically deep
and geographically broad, the authors underline the importance of a transdisciplinary
approach, and offer a highly readable distillation of several historical and ethnographic
perspectives of contemporary global health problems. The case studies presented throughout
Reimagining Global Health bring together ethnographic, theoretical, and historical
perspectives into a wholly new and exciting investigation of global health. The interdisciplinary
approach outlined in this text should prove useful not only in schools of public health,
nursing, and medicine, but also in undergraduate and graduate classes in anthropology,
sociology, political economy, and history, among others"--Provided by publisher
