Global health challenges are evolving profoundly. Today public health practitioners must recognize the importance of global changes for human health and health policy at all levels. Fully revised and restructured, this ground-breaking title returns in its third edition to offer students and practitioners an accessible and contemporary exploration of globalization and global health.

 The book includes critical reflection on global changes, with practical learning activities which help you explore the central debates. Chapters cover key issues, and emerging trends in global policy, such as:

•Social change in the 21st century, including social media and technology
•The emergence of global health governance and its colonial heritage
•Trade and its implications on health, policy, and disease
•Global environmental change including climate, biodiversity, and global policy responses 
•Infectious disease including pandemic trends and global policy responses
•Non-communicable diseases and the risks of alcohol, food, and tobacco
•Governance and the state, including non-governmental actors 

The third edition of Globalization and Global Health is an ideal resource for students of public health and health policy, public health practitioners and policy makers.
