The impact of urbanization on the health of citizens in developing countries has received increasing attention recently.

It includes contributions from leading practitioners and advisors to many of the main international agencies and presents the latest thinking of those institutions. It also presents recent information on research findings, the management and financing of urban health services and trends in urban health policy.
