Health justice concerns the justified use of publicly funded
resources in medicine, health care, and public health. 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.
