ABSTRACT
Is an important book because it places the new history of public health at the center of politics and international relations. Espinosa demonstrates that the story of Cuba-U.S. relations during theses fifty tumultuous years, crucial ones for understanding all that followed, can be told as the history of polical and social responses to an epidemic disease. Nicely juxtaposing U.S. and Cuba perspectives, and using large helpings of fresh archival sources, Epidemic Invasions is the first comprhensive account of the United States peculiarly medical occupations of-and preoccupations with-Cuba. A lucid and concise work, it will appeal to all readers.
