Review: Good for what it is - I hate taking the global health class, but the book itself is a surprise — honestly, it’s pretty easy to read. It breaks down big concepts in a clear way and doesn’t overcomplicate things (which I appreciate). The downside? It took a few days to arrive, so I had to scramble to keep up with readings at first. All in all, for something I don’t enjoy, the book makes it less painful.
