In this book, editors and their co-authors discuss medical topics and their diverse circumstances in the global context. They explore where German standards stand in comparison to global conditions, what is important in women's healthcare - and what is less so, which standards are universally applicable, and where meaningful regional variations exist.
The book, written in clear and understandable language, is aimed at gynecologists, obstetricians, midwives, and nurses involved in humanitarian aid, as well as anyone interested in the future development of global medicine.
Content includes:
- General medical concepts and worldwide statistics

- Therapy options for gynecological carcinomas and palliative care
