This review is from: Finding Work in Global Health (Paperback)

This book was a great guide to figuring out whether I really wanted a job in international health. It was equally solid in running me through the steps toward finding meaningful work. I recommend it both as a how-to manual, and for the interviews it offers with people who've been in the field.
