Andrew Price-Smith was a leading scholar of global health security and the David Packard Smith Professor of International Relations at Colorado College, as well as the author of The Health of Nations and Contagion and Chaos, both published by the MIT Press. The Health of Nations made a seminal impact on the burgeoning field of global health security; in recognition of his legacy of engaged scholarship, creative thinking, and relentless curiosity, the International Studies Association's Global Health Security Award has been renamed the Andrew Price-Smith Book Award.
