Beckett University.
Ruth Cross is Course Director in Health Promotion at
Leeds Beckett University.
Together, they are authors (with Diane Lowcock)

"This is an excellent reference book for students undertaking
courses in global health. It introduces them to the many diverse
issues that lie under the umbrella of global health studies, while
encouraging them to think critically by including a set of
intermittent questions aimed at the reader."
David McCoy, Queen Mary University of London
"Warwick-Booth and Cross examine global health from a perspective
of health equity and critical human rights. This welcome and
refreshing departure challenges both learners and researchers to
develop innovations for a postcolonial world. With activities to
facilitate deep learning and problem solving, this text makes a
valuable contribution to the curriculum of service providers and
prepares students to be globally responsible citizens."
Karline Wilson-Mitchell, Ryerson University
