Amit Sengupta (1958ā€“2018) believed the job of a doctor was not simply to
treat a sick individual, but to build a society in which health is a
fundamental right of all citizens. In these times of the Covid-19 pandemic,
such a perspective is more relevant than ever. The essays in *Political
Journeys in Health: Essays by and for Amit Sengupta*

book trace how Sengupta's work and politics were integral to the history of
the health movement, and how this movement evolved from ā€˜medicines for allā€™
to ā€˜health for allā€™. Read more

Vijay Prashad
  The book is a roll call of butchers and assassins, of plots against
peopleā€™s movements and governments; of the assassination of socialists,
Marxists, communists all over the Third World by the country where liberty
is a statue. But nonetheless, the book is about possibilities, about hope,
about genuine heroes.

In March 1951, Jacobo Ɓrbenz GuzmƔn took office as the President of
Guatemala. The landless movement and the Left had fought to elect a
president who decided to push through a moderate land reform agenda. Such a
project threatened to undercut the land holding of the United Fruit
Company, a US conglomerate that strangled this American nation. The CIA got
to work. To ā€˜remove covertly, and without bloodshed *if possible*, the
menace of the present Communist-controlled government in Guatemalaā€™, the
CIA launched a covert operation ā€“ the innocuously named PBSUCCESS. Below is
a faux-real-time account of the 1954 Guatemalan coup dā€™Ć©tat, 11 days that
didnā€™t shake the world as much as they ought to have. Read more
