The WHO's history spans a period of over six decades, with
particular emphasis on the past twenty years. This has been a
particularly busy period in WHO's development, given the transition
from international to global health cooperation, and thus the need
to adapt to important changes in its operating environment. In some
cases, WHO has been a direct part of the institutional arrangements
that have been created, and has shared the increased funding,
provided for global health. In other cases, the organization has
had to adapt its activities and programs in response to rival
initiatives. This has led to many changes, not only to the name of
specific parts of WHO but the nature of their activities; and this
second edition attempts to capture some of this institutional
complexity. The Historical Dictionary of the World Health
Organization covers the history of the WHO through a chronology, an
introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 1000 cross-referenced entries on key
bodies, programs, events and people. This book is an excellent
access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know
more about the World Health Organization.
