Dear Prof. Navarro-

I have recently become aquainted with your work due to
a paper that I recently wrote for a class: Neoliberal
ideology within the World Health Organization’s Health
and Environmental Linkages Initiative (HELI).  In this
paper, I drew heavily on your work and the work of
others that I see listed in your book.  If only I had
had your book at the time!

I had considered publishing the paper due to the fact
that I discovered very few authors are publicly
criticizing the WHO for this terrible turn towards
Neoliberalism.  At the moment, I am struggling to be a
student and mother at the same time, and am unsure I
will have the chance to get this to publication before
my second child is due in February.  If you would find
the material I gathered useful (probably nothing new
to you other than a preliminary analysis of the
primary report of HELI), or know of someone who would
find this useful, I would be happy to share it.  If
you think that it would still be relevant to publish
in 6-8 months, I would also be happy for any guidance
you could offer.  I have no intentions of continuing
in academia and am happy to shout out loud at the WHO.

Very much looking forward to reading your book cover
to cover.

All the best,
Amanda Sheedy
