Synopsis

This collection argues that geographical perspectives are essential to bringing new and critical perspectives to bear on the inherent complexities and interconnectedness of global health problems, and its purported solutions. The contributions in this collection are based around five key themes: inclusion and exclusion in evidence and knowledge gathering; practising and producing global health; politics, advocacy and social justice; human and non-human bodies in global health discourse; and the 'absent presences' of global health.
