"In this terrific, highly engaging book, Rochelle Burgess challenges us to think about what is global health without power, notably the power over who lives and who dies. This goes to the heart of every contemporary debate and policy practice and is thus essential reading for everyone working in global health. Burgess’ command of stories that matter and scope of empirical cases combined with conceptual insight drawn from her years of expertise position this book at the heart of the global health canon."

Professor Sophie Harman, Professor of International Politics, Queen Mary, University of London

"I want to place this book in the hands of every global health student, and everyone who has ever thought about, worked towards, or been on the recieving end of efforts to achieve health equity. The book puts the field of global health in its historical contexts, while brilliantly, sensitively, and inclusivly pointing at what it could be; a field that lives up to its name."

Dr. Seye Abimbola, Associate Professor of Health Systems, University of Sydney, Editor BMJ Global Health
