Reviews

[Hewa] makes excellent use of archival materials and the latest research of historians of imperialism, showing how the hookworm campaign was doomed because inadequate resources were made available for public health infrastructure. His discussions and conclusions contain much of relevance for understanding many contemporary health problems.--W.F. Bynum
