This Open Access volume provides in-depth analysis of the wide
range of ethical issues associated with drug-resistant infectious
diseases. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is widely recognized to be
one of the greatest threats to global public health in coming
decades; and it has thus become a major topic of discussion among
leading bioethicists and scholars from related disciplines
including economics, epidemiology, law, and political theory.
Topics covered in this volume include responsible use of
antimicrobials; control of multi-resistant hospital-acquired
infections; privacy and data collection; antibiotic use in
childhood and at the end of life; agricultural and veterinary
sources of resistance; resistant HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria;
mandatory treatment; and trade-offs between current and future
generations. As the first book focused on ethical issues associated
with drug resistance, it makes a timely contribution to debates
regarding practice and policy that are of crucial importance to
global public health in the 21st century.
