The Perspectives on Global Health series publishes books that shed light on important issues related to global health. Collectively, the volumes provide granular detail about health care practices in various parts of the world, challenge common assumptions about the field, and provide much-needed historical context to illustrate connections between global health’s past and present. The series seeks to highlight the work of local actors and to present multiple scales of global health. Books in this series often cross disciplines and draw on sources and methods from both the natural and the social sciences.
Over the past decade, books in the series have focused largely on the African continent, but we are eager to expand the geographical scope. We welcome manuscript proposals that address other parts of the world, such as Latin America, Asia, and the Middle East, that are explicitly comparative between regions, or that examine a particular topic from a global perspective.
The books are written to the highest scholarly standards for a readership of both students and practitioners, and they are appropriate for adoption in undergraduate courses in history, anthropology, and global health, as well as for graduate programs in medicine, public health, and global health.
The series editor encourages proposals from authors of all career stages and geographic locations and is particularly excited to work with first-time authors and authors from the Global South.
To discuss an idea for a book in the series, please contact series editor Melissa Graboyes at [email protected]. After an initial discussion of the appropriateness of the topic for the series, authors may prepare a formal proposal and one or two manuscript chapters for consideration, following Ohio University Press’s submission guidelines.
