Despite several studies on the social, cultural, and political
histories of medicine and of public health in different parts of
Latin America and the Caribbean, local and national focuses still
predominate, and there are few panoramic studies that analyze the
overarching tendencies in the development of health in the region.
This comprehensive book summarizes the social history of medicine,
medical education, and public health in Latin America and places it
in dialogue with the international historiographical currents in
medicine and health. Ultimately, this text provides a clear, broad,
and provocative synthesis of the history of Latin American medical
developments while illuminating the recent challenges of global
health in the region and other developing countries.
