“História, Ciências, Saúde – Manguinhos: is the first place I go to keep up with the best work being done in Latin America in the history of science and medicine. It is impeccably edited, and the intellectual range of its articles is impressive. The journal keeps the reader up to date with historiographic and other debates in the field, and ferrets out rare or unusual documents for commentary. Bravo!!”
