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. 410 0$aCalifornia series in public anthropology ;$v26. 606 $aWorld health 606 $aHealth services accessibility 610 $aanthropology. 610 $acase studies. 610 $aconservation. 610 $aethnographic perspective. 610 $ageographically broad approach. 610 $aglobal awareness. 610 $ahealth and wellness. 610 $ahistorical precedence. 610 $ahistory. 610 $ainternational health. 610 $amedicine. 610 $anursing. 610 $apolitical activism. 610 $apolitical economy. 610 $apublic health. 610 $asocial awareness. 610 $asociology. 610 $asustainability. 610 $atheoretical. 610 $atransdisciplinary. 615 0$aWorld health. 615 0$aHealth services accessibility. 676 $a362.1 701 $aFarmer$b Paul$f1959-2022.$01082029 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779838103321 996 $aReimagining global health$93753458 997 $aUNINA
