Health and Human Rights in a Changing World is a comprehensive and contemporary collection of readings and original material examining health and human rights from a global perspective. Editors Grodin, Tarantola, Annas, and Gruskin are wellknown for their previous two volumes (published by Routledge) on this increasingly important subject to the global community. The editors have contextualized each of the five sections with foundational essays; each reading concludes with discussion topics, questions, and suggested readings. This book also includes Points of View sectionsoriginally written perspectives by important authors in the field.Section I is a Health and Human Rights Overview that lays out the essential knowledge base and provides the foundation for the following sections.Section II brings in notions of concepts, methods, and governance framing the application of health and human rights, in particular the Human Rightsbased Approaches to Health. Section III sheds light on issues of heightened vulnerability and special protection, stressing that the health and human rights record of any nation, any community, is determined by what is being done and not done about those who are most in need.Section IV focuses onaddressing system failures where health and human rights issues have been documented, recognized, even at times proclaimed as priorities, and yet insufficiently attended to as a result of State denial, unwillingness, or incapacity.Section V examines the relevance of the health and human rights paradigm to a changing world, underscoring contemporary global challenges and responses.Finally, a Concluding Note brings together the key themes of this set of articles and attempts to project a vision of the future.
