It is a splendidly, lovingly and selflessly edited book, selfless to the extent that the editors do not reveal their professional affiliations, though they identify three institutions - the University of Central America Jose Simeon Canas, the Faculty Seminar on Central America at Swarthmore College, and
CHRICA, the Committee for Health Rights in Central America (of which the editors are members) - as beneficiaries of all proceeds from the book.
