From the Publisher
“A labor of love, but there is little sentimantality here. Rather, the research is always thorough, and the analysis impartial. One of the volume’s strengths is the way in which the authors write about the overt racism without the whiggism that so oftenclouds modern colonial studies.” (William Bynum, Professor Emeritus of the History of Medicine, University College, London,UK)
“The significance of Greenwood and Topiwala’s book lies not only in its ability to piece together disparate and incomplete sources in order to offer a careful analysis of Indian roles in Kenyan medicine, but also lies in its capacity to display the complexity of colonialism itself.” (Tiffany F. Jones Associate Professor of California State University, San Bernardino , USA)
“Richly footnoted with several leads for future inquiry, this is an authoritative study that will serve as a valuable reference for a host of overlapping readerships.” (James R. Brennan, Associate Professor, Department of History, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA)
“This is a remarkable book in its expanse, scope and the meticulousness of its research. A rare mix. In refreshingly readable prose, the authors address critical aspects of the history of colonial medicine, segregation and medical policy in the neglected history of Indian doctors in Africa.” (Professor Pratik Chakrabarti, University of Manchester, UK)
