Publisher Synopsis
"Now more than ever, we need scholarship which lifts the history of medicine out of national silos and sets it in proper global context. Mullally and Wright give an expert demonstration of this approach, founded on meticulous research into medical migration which moves deftly between individual experience and broader patterns. The result is a study which not only enhances our understanding of Canada's health politics, but also illuminates the underpinnings of professional mobility in an earlier era of globalisation."
