Global Health Governance

Rezensionen / Stimmen

A masterful blend of insight, coverage and accessibility. Essential reading for anyone learning about, or working in, the rapidly evolving field of global health governance in the 21st century.

Stefan Elbe, University of Sussex, UK

This remains the clearest and most wide-ranging introduction to the field. The sections on the recent pandemic and the governance responses to it, local as well as global, are especially helpful.
Craig N. Murphy, Wellesley College, USA

Global health has only become more prominent an issue over the past dozen years, and Harman and Papamichail trace what has changed-and what has stayed the same-in an approachable and engaging style. This book is a great resource for everyone from people who are just learning about global health politics to established scholars.

Covid-19 is the most recent illustration of why better Global Health Governance is a must-read for students, faculty, and policy analysts.

This book is a one stop shop of all the nuances and challenges that exist in the shaky system of multilateral institutions, governments, the private sector, NGOs, and beyond. It's a vital read for all students of global health, in whatever discipline, as it considers the underlying politics behind all interactions. The updated version, particularly with updated sections on health emergencies and global health security are essential for how we reflect on the changing nature of governance post COVID. Beyond its invaluable read for students, this book is always a go-to for me as an academic to double check points-it's accessible style and readability makes it easy to find information quickly and in doing so I'm always left with further areas of thought that I hadn't considered beforehand.

A very welcome update to one of the most useful introductions to Global Health Governance. The second edition fully covers recent global health emergencies-including the COVID-19 pandemic-as well as developments in the theory and practice of global health politics. As with the first edition, it skilfully combines accessibility with depth and nuance. A really valuable resource for all students and teachers of global health.
