Title: Public health, ethics, and equity
Description: "This volume examines the foundations of health equity. With contributions from distinguished philosophers, anthropologists, economists, and public-health specialists, it centres on five major themes: what is health equity?; health equity and its relation to social justice; health inequalities and responsibilities for health; ethical issues in health evaluation and prioritization; and anthropological perspectives on health equity." "This significant volume will be valuable to researchers and teachers in public health, philosophy, public policy, and health economics, and to public-health analysts and policy makers."--BOOK JACKET.
