Abstract

The emergence in 2006 of extensively drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis, especially in countries with a high prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus, are serious threats to global public health and jeopardizes efforts to effectively control the disease. These important developments and the availability of new evidence related to the diagnosis and management of drug-resistant tuberculosis have mandated an urgent update of existing guidelines. Guidelines for the programmatic management of drug-resistant tuberculosis: emergency updated edition 2008 replaces previous publications by the Wor

Abstract

Human health is shaped by the interactions between social and ecological systems. In States of Disease, Brian King advances a social ecology of health framework to demonstrate how historical spatial formations contribute to contemporary vulnerabilities to disease and the opportunities for health justice. He examines how expanded access to antiretroviral therapy is transforming managed HIV in South Africa. And he reveals how environmental health is shifting due to global climate change and flooding variability in northern Botswana. These case studies illustrate how the political environmental context shapes the ways in which health is embodied, experienced, and managed.
