Comment and suggested reading

“What a terrific book!  I have been researching Cuban medical internationalism for several years, and found Steve Brouwer’s book an excellent, insightful first-person account of how Cuban medical cooperation (and not aid!) is changing the face of the developing world.”
—John Kirk, Professor of Latin American Studies, Dalhousie University, Canada, author of Cuban Medical Internationalism: Origins, Evolution, and Goals   

Steve Brouwer: I have appreciated the favorable responses to Revolutionary Doctors that have come from a variety of experts who study global public health, Cuban international medical missions, and the development of medical practice and education in Cuba over the past 50 years.   Readers of Revolutionary Doctors who want to do further reading and get deeper background information should consult some of the following sources:
