Description

Public Health Ethics by Stephen Holland explores how philosophy can help evaluate public health interventions. The author examines key goals in relation to moral and political philosophy, reflecting on everyday intuitions about justified public health policies. Recent developments are addressed through new content on equity and health inequalities, as well as the gathering and use of public health information. The book includes discussions on contemporary cases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and provides a lively introduction to the subject.
