This academic series from the University of California Press covers the intersection of public health, human rights, and anthropological inquiry. Pathologies of Power (2003) sets the framework, arguing that health inequality is a form of structural violence. Partner to the Poor (2010) and Reimagining Global Health (2013) continue that tradition, examining how global health systems operate in practice and where they fail.

To Repair the World (2013) and Blind Spot (2014) round out the series, the former a collection of speeches and essays on social justice in medicine, the latter examining gaps in how the health sector understands and addresses poverty. These are scholarly texts aimed at students, researchers, and practitioners in public health and related fields.
