Addressing global health is one of the largest challenges facing
humanity in the 21st century, however, this task is becoming even
more formidable with the accelerated destruction of the planet.
Building on the success of the previous edition, the book outlines
how progress towards improving global health relies on
understanding its core social, economic, political, environmental
and ideological aspects. A multi-disciplinary group of authors
suggest not only theoretically compelling arguments for what we
must do, but also provide practical recommendations as to how we
can promote global health despite contemporary constraints. The
importance of cross-cultural dialogue and utilisation of ethical
tools in tackling global health problems is emphasised. Thoroughly
updated, new or expanded topics include: mass displacement of
people; novel threats, including new infectious diseases; global
justice; and ecological ethics and planetary sustainability.
Offering a diverse range of perspectives, this volume is essential
for bioethicists, public health practitioners and philosophers.
