Abstract
It has been ten years since the publication of Professor Larry Gostin's pathbreaking contribution to law, medicine, and public health, Global Health Law (Harvard University Press, 2014). As Professor Sofia Gruskin's review in The Lancet noted, the book "brings attention to critical aspects of law that anyone interested in global health needs to be concerned about…" This sentiment was echoed throughout the academy, civil society, among non-governmental organizations, legislative bodies, and even courts.Professor Gostin's legacy fits among those who harnessed their wisdom, expertise, and voices for the betterment of others and who recognized that chief among the worst harms for any people to endure is the denial of healthcare. This year, one decade after the publication of this of Global Health Law and numerous articles, commentaries, and books, it is clear that Professor Lawrence O. Gostin refuses to be silent on matters that concern the health of the most vulnerable in our world. Our planet is better for his very presence and commitment to what is just, kind, and compassionate.
自从Larry Gostin教授在法律、医学和公共卫生方面的开创性贡献《全球卫生法》（Harvard University Press, 2014）出版以来，已经过去了十年。正如索菲亚·格鲁斯金教授在《柳叶刀》杂志上发表的评论所指出的那样，这本书“引起了对法律关键方面的关注，任何对全球卫生感兴趣的人都需要关注……”这一观点在学术界、民间社会、非政府组织、立法机构甚至法院都得到了呼应。Gostin教授的遗产适合那些利用他们的智慧、专业知识和声音来改善他人的人，他们认识到任何人要忍受的最大伤害之一是拒绝医疗保健。今年，在《全球卫生法》这本书以及众多文章、评论和书籍出版十年之后，劳伦斯·o·戈斯廷教授显然拒绝对与我们世界上最弱势群体的健康有关的问题保持沉默。我们的星球因为他的存在和对正义、善良和富有同情心的承诺而变得更好。
