The field of global health has roots in the AIDS pandemic of the late 20th century, when the installation of health care systems supplanted older, low-cost prevention programs to help stem the spread of HIV in low- and middle-income Africa. Today’s global health is rooted the belief that health care is a human right, and that by promoting health we can cultivate equity and social justice in places where such values aren’t always found.

An Introduction to Global Health Delivery is a short but immersive introduction to global health’s origins, actors, interventions, and challenges. Informed by physician Joia Mukherjee’s quarter-century of experience fighting disease and poverty in more than a dozen countries, it delivers a clear-eyed overview of the movement underway to reduce global health disparities and establish sustainable access to care, including details of what has worked so far — and what hasn’t.
