500 _a`The book provides wide-ranging data and direct experience from people working in academic, health service, community and other institutions across a number of South Asian countries' - Rene Loewenson, Global Social Policy. This edited volume seeks to understand the myriad factors responsible for the poor state of public health in South Asia. Given the paucity of data and documentation on health sector reforms in the subcontinent, this is a valuable collection that blends theoretical critiques of health sector reforms with micro and macro data to offer fresh insights into issues of public health.
