Aus dem Klappentext

Global Health Council president Nils Daulaire, MD, MPH says Finding Work in Global Health offers "some very practical advice I wish I had had when I was first getting into this line of work." Filled with useful information, checklists and resources, this is the one book for nurses, doctors, public health workers, volunteers or anyone with global health dreams. When I first read Finding Work in Global Health, I felt like I was reading the Lonely Planet Guide to the life and career I have chosen. In approachable, human and humorous ways, Garth Osborn and Patricia Ohmans lay out the context, the scene, and some very practical advice that I wish I had had when I was first getting into this line of work. I enthusiastically concur that this is a terrific place to start for those looking to make a difference in global health. Nils Daulaire, MD and CEO, Global Health Council (from the forward)
