Have you read a book that you think would make a good selection for the next CPH Book Club in 2021-22?

If so, send your ideas to cph-communications@uiowa.edu.

The annual Book Club invites everyone in the college to read the selected book and join in activities. Students, faculty, staff, and alumni are welcome to submit suggestions!

All genres are welcome — nonfiction, biography, fiction, memoir, etc. — but the book should address a public health theme or area.

The past book selections have been:

  • The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks – Rebecca Skloot
  • House on Fire – William H. Foege
  • The Big Truck that Went By  – Jonathan M. Katz
  • Evicted – Matthew Desmond
  • Hot, Hungry Planet – Lisa Palmer
  • What the Eyes Don’t See – Mona Hanna-Attisha
  • Stamped from the Beginning – Ibram X. Kendi
