This comprehensive book, written by Marcos Cueto, scientific editor of HCSM, and Steven Palmer, of the University of Windsor (Canada), portraits the historical transformations of medicine and public health in Latin America over four centuries. The work is the result of several years of research in archives and libraries of Latin America and the United States.
João Nunes, lecturer of International Relations at the University of York reviews this book considering its key contributions, which overall question commonly held assumptions about the origins and trajectory of international and global health. See full review in HCSM (vol.25 no.1 Jan./Mar. 2018).
