HOFFMAN, M; COETZEE, D; HODES, R and LONDON, L. From comprehensive medicine to public health at the University of Cape Town: A 40-year journey. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2012, vol.102, n.6, pp.442-446. ISSN 2078-5135.

We draw from primary and secondary sources to trace the emergence, growth and development of the School, and to situate these processes within the socio-political, clinical and public health contexts in South Africa and internationally
