About the Book

Protecting public health is central to the success of a modern government. The essays in this edited collection focus on the relationship between vaccines, vaccination policies and nation states, across the last two centuries. Key campaigns against major diseases in Europe, West Africa, South and East Asia, and North and South America are examined in detail, to provide the first truly global study of vaccine controversies. Expert contributors provide a complex historical analysis of vaccination that will be of interest to historians, public health scholars and policy makers.
