« J'ai connu la tentation du cliché », avoue le philosophe Alain Badiou en entrevue. Nous voilà rassurés : même les plus grands risquent de tomber dans les poncifs ou, comme l'expliquait Platon, dans une vision cynique et pauvre du monde. Ce livre pose le problème de l'obscurantisme lié à l'absence d'accès aux connaissances. Le lecteur est donc convié à une aventure de vérification. Des spécialistes internationaux de plusieurs domaines (santé publique, anthropo­logie, sociologie, histoire, économie) déconstruisent ici en quelques pages un certain nombre d'idées reçues autour de thèmes très variés : sida, santé maternelle, reproductive et sexuelle, accès aux soins, offre de soins, environnement, nutrition… Le pari consiste à mettre en lumière l'importance d'une argumentation critique nuancée en examinant des idées largement véhiculées, c'est-à-dire celles qui ont cours dans le grand public. Par sa dimension éclectique, cet ouvrage est aussi divertissant qu'instructif pour lutter contre les clichés néfastes au progrès des nations. Une co-édition avec les Presses universitaires de Montréal.

Universal Health Coverage as defined by the World Health Organization encompasses equal access for all to good quality health services and with no financial risk for those in need of them. As such it is a modern term formulated on western ideas of health, however the philosophy it conveys has existed for many centuries across different regions and cultures of the world. 'Health For All' is based on series of seminars which formed part of the World Health Organization's Global Health Histories project. It explores the development of universal health coverage in diverse contexts, the political and economic trends that effected the running of these schemes, and, not least, critical perspectives into the variety of links between structures of national universal healthcare systems.
