520			_a"This fascinating book offers a pathway for the NHS to adopt low-cost but effective innovations from areas of the world traditionally seen as beneficiaries rather than providers of help and support. In an era of increasing demand and dwindling resources, and where the Covid-19 pandemic has illustrated the structural limitations of the current system, the book provides examples of simple, frugal but high-quality alternatives to current practice. From orthopaedics to paediatrics, and mental health to plastic surgery, the book illustrates how low and middle-income countries have found solutions to healthcare issues that are not only safe and clinically effective, but which have the potential to save the NHS millions of pounds. Grounded in the contemporary debates of decolonization, it invites readers to question the culture and systems in global health that views low-income countries as solely passive recipients of aid. The volume will be essential reading for students and scholars across Public Health, Global Health and Development Studies, as well as healthcare managers and policy makers in the UK and beyond"-- _cProvided by publisher.
