With a unique emphasis on possible solutions

all the key issues of global health at a level that

is basic enough for students from a variety

of backgrounds and majors The text also

covers biological and social aspects of major

global health issues, especially in the areas of

infectious disease, nutrition, and

environmental health

In addition, it examines population groups that

are at increased risk of poor health and policies

and programs designed to reduce health

inequalities; explores the basic methods used to

assess global health; and discusses the tools to

locate and understand additional global health

information

“I have tried other books on global health that

focused heavily on policy and the students were

often overwhelmed I think this new text is the

right balance of science and policy.”

Global Surgery and

Public Health

A New Paradigm

Surgery, University of Utah, Salt Lake City

Raymond R Price, MD, Vice Chairman,

Department of Surgery, Intermountain Medical

Center, Murray, Utah

Global Surgery and Public Health: A New

Paradigm offers the most current information

as well as a systematic approach to considering

surgery in the context of a broader umbrella of

public health It is ideal for courses in global/

international health, public health, surgery,

and medical anthropology, as well as for

professionals in public policy and international

health care and humanitarian groups serving

the surgical needs of patients in

under-resourced settings

“This, in our view, is precisely what is needed to

move surgery into its proper role as a cornerstone

of global public health rather than, as we have

argued elsewhere, its neglected stepchild.”
