International Public Health Policy and Ethics: The International Library of Bioethics, cartea 106

Editat de Michael Boylan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 2023
This second edition of International Public Health Policy and Ethics complements the popular first edition with contemporary problems in international public health. It brings together philosophers and practitioners to address the foundations and principles upon which public health policy may be advanced – especially in the international arena. What is the basis that justifies public health in the first place? Why should individuals be disadvantaged for the sake of the group? How do policy concerns and clinical practice work together and work against each other? Can the boundaries of public health be extended to include social ills that are amenable to group-dynamic solutions? What about political issues? How can international finance make an impact? These are some of the crucial questions that form the core of this volume of original essays sure to cause practitioners to engage in a critical re-evaluation of the role of ethics in public health policy. With a targeted new essay dealing with COVID and public health issues in Africa this second edition provides a resource building on the first edition.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"This collection of essays by noted public health scholars and professionals broadly defines public health and explores questions of its international policy and ethics. … This should be of interest to those involved in public health policy and ethics, and in how international politics, law, culture, history, disparities, etc., complicate this field. … This is a good introduction to the increasingly important field of international public health." (Daniel Bustillos, Doody’s Review Services, December, 2008)
