Essays range from historical overviews and historiographic surveys
of children's health in various regions of the world, to disability
and affliction narratives - from polio in North American to AIDS
orphans in post-Apartheid South Africa - to interpretations of
artistic renderings of sick children that tell us much about
medicine, family, and society at specific times in history.
Taking care to position children at the centre of the analysis,
Healing the World's Children provides a unique international and
interdisciplinary perspective on a critical twentieth-century
project - saving children - that remains a challenge in our own
time.
