Description

Situating sleeping sickness control within African intellectual worlds and political dynamics, Webel prioritizes local histories to understand the successes and failures of a widely used colonial public health intervention―the sleeping sickness camp―in dialogue with African strategies to mitigate illness and death in the past. Review "Striking a deft balance between historical analysis and training historical attention to contemporary global health endeavors in Africa, Webel makes a substantial, original contribution to the history of science and medicine in Africa, the relationship between public health and politics in early colonial Africa, and African history more broadly."--Neil Kodesh, author of Beyond the Royal Gaze: Clanship and Public Healing in Buganda About the Author Mari K. Webel is assistant professor of history at the University of Pittsburgh. She is a specialist in modern African history and the histories of public health, healing, and medicine.
