Globalization and Health

From a public health perspective, globalization appears to be a mixed blessing. This international collection of essays on globalization and health examines the global health issues associated with the economic, technological, political, social, cultural and environmental effects of globalization-the increasing movement of capital, people, technology, goods, information, environmental pollution, and disease around the globe. These essays analyze the complex linkages between globalization and health, the health effects of globalization at all levels (global, national, and local), and the policy and institutional responses associated with the health consequences of globalization.Harris, Richard L. is the author of 'Globalization and Health', published 2004 under ISBN 9789004141452 and ISBN 9004141456.
