Summary:
"Global Health Governance and Policy outlines the fundamentals of global health, a key element of sustainable development. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, it explores the relationship between the globalization process and global health's social, political, economic and environmental determinants. It points the attention to the actors and forces that shape global policies and actions with an impact on peoples' health in an increasingly complex global governance context." -- Provided by publisher.
