This volume provides the first detailed overview of the growing
phenomenon of the international migration of skilled health
workers. The contributors focus on who migrates, why they migrate,
what the outcomes are for them and their extended families, what
their experiences in the workforce are, and ultimately, the extent
to which this expanding migration flow has a relationship to
development issues. It therefore provides new, interdisciplinary
reflections on such core issues as brain drain, gender roles,
remittances and sustainable development at a time when there has
never been greater interest in the migration of health workers.
