Author Information

Benjamin B. Page earned his Ph.D. in Social Philosophy at Florida State University. He also earned a post-doctoral M.S. in Urban and Regional Health Planning. His interest in the work of the Rockefeller Foundation in globalizing ""scientific"" medicine and public health emerged during a year (1975-6) spent in Czechoslovakia studying Biomedical Ethics in the context of a socialist economic system. Professor Page has continued to work in both Philosophy and Health Planning during the years he has taught at Quinnipiac University, and has published articles about the RF in Czechoslovakia in both English-language and Czech journals. David A. Valone is currently an assistant professor of history at Quinnipiac University, and holds degrees from Princeton University and the University of Chicago. He previously worked on the staff of the Institute Archives of the California Institute of Technology, where he processed the archival records of the Human Betterment Foundation. His areas of research include nineteenth century British and Irish history as well as the history of science and medicine. His published works include Ireland's Great Hunger: Silence, Memory and Commemoration co-edited with Christine Kinealy, and numerous articles.
