About this title

Synopsis

Enormous progress has been made in global health conditions during the past several decades, yet chronic hunger and illness persist in poor countries. The authors analyze the potential of international cooperation to improve health in poor countries. Drawing on various disciplines, including public health, economics, and other social sciences, the authors stress the need for collaborative processes and local institution strengthening.
