Theories of Health Justice explores the philosophical implications of the assumption that we should use such resources for the purposes of achieving health. Providing an introduction to the debate about health justice, the book offers clear conceptual definitions of health and disease, as well as an analysis of the different relevant theories of justice.The author goes on to argue that a sufficientarian account of justice (the idea that we should aim to make sure that each citizen has enough) is most fitting for the purposes of health justice. He defends this specific theory of health justice in relation to health care and public health, before expanding the argument to engage with issues in global justice.This text is ideal for students interested in the philosophy of medicine, medical ethics and philosophy and public policy.Language: EnglishItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 149mmItem Width: 13mmItem Weight: 249gAuthor: Thomas SchrammeGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
