About Perspectives on Global Health

The Ohio University Press is launching a new series entitled Perspectives on Global Health. This series will publish innovative studies that draw upon perspectives from the natural sciences and social sciences to shed light on important issues in global public health. The books in Perspectives on Global Health will interest students and practitioners and will be appropriate for adoption in undergraduate and graduate courses in global public health.

About the Inaugural Volume

The inaugural volume in Perspectives on Global Health is Global Health in Africa: Historical Perspectives on Culture, Epidemiology, and Disease Control, a collection of historical perspectives on problems of health and disease in Africa. It brings together the work of prominent scholars of the history of public health in Africa who investigate the interactions between people, pathogens, and their environments.

We are currently accepting submissions for the series, for details about submissions see the Submission Guidelines page.
