Continually changing health threats, technologies, science, and
demographics require that public health professionals have an
understanding of law sufficient to address complex new public
health challenges as they come into being. Law in Public Health
Practice, Second Edition provides a thorough review of the legal
basis and authorities for the core elements of public health
practice and solid discussions of existing and emerging
high-priority areas where law and public health intersect.
As in the previous edition, each chapter is authored jointly by
experts in law and public health. This new edition features three
completely new chapters, with several others thoroughly revised and
updated. New chapters address such topics as the structure of law
in US public health systems and practice, the role of the judiciary
in public health, and law in chronic disease prevention and
control. The chapter on public health emergencies has also been
fully revised to take into account both the SARS epidemic of 2003
and the events of the Fall of 2001. The chapter now discusses
topics such as the legal basis for declaring emergencies, the legal
structure of mutual aid agreements, and the role of the military in
emergencies. Other fully revised chapters include those on
genomics, injury prevention, identifiable health information, and
ethics in the practice of public health.
The book begins with a section on the legal basis for public
health practice, including foundations and structure of the law,
discussions of the judiciary, ethics and practice of public health,
and criminal law and international considerations. The second
section focuses on core public health applications and the law,
andincludes chapters on legal counsel for public health
practitioners, legal authorities for interventions in public health
emergencies, and considerations for special populations. The third
section discusses the law in controlling and preventing diseases,
injuries, and disabilities. This section includes chapters on
genomics, vaccinations, foodborne illness, STDs, reproductive
health, chronic disease control, tobacco use, and occupational and
environmental health.
All chapters take a practical approach and are written in an
accessible, user-friendly fashion. This is an excellent resource
for a wide readership of public health practitioners, lawyers, and
healthcare providers, as well as for educators and students of law
and public health.
Written over four thousand years ago in ancient Mesopotamia, The
City of Rainbows is one of the world's oldest folktales, featuring
a wise king, a foolish king, magic deeds, talking animals, and a
good witch who triumphs over a wicked sorcerer. This book offers
the first modern retelling of the story, together with colour
cut-paper illustrations based on actual works of Sumerian mosaic
art. The City of Rainbows will delight audiences young and old with
its vivid characters and timeless humour. Karen Foster teaches
ancient art and archaeology at Yale University.
Updated for 2012: Forty years after throwing off the shackles of a
patriarchy that required nothing less than marriage and babies from
its female citizens, women continue to fall prey to the
conventional wisdom that you "grow up, get married and have
children." This is just the tip of the melting ice berg. While our
planet struggles to maintain the over 6.5 billion humans already
ravaging her splendor, women (and men) still encounter resistance
by family and friends solely because they have decided not to breed
another ravenous consumer. In "No Way Baby " the decision not to
have children is examined and defended so that the choice may be
better understood. With ongoing narrative intertwined with insights
from 40+ childfrees living on the front lines, Karen Foster makes
the case that it is time to stop obligatory procreation and
recognize that childfree adults make a valuable contribution to
society that benefit everyone - even children.
