This important book outlines how, despite varying levels of global
socio-economic development, governments around the world can
guarantee their citizens' fundamental right to basic healthcare.
Grounded in the philosophical position that healthcare is an
essential element to human dignity, the book moves beyond this
theoretical principle to offer policy-makers a basis for health
policies based on public accountability and social responsiveness.
Also emphasizing the importance of global co-operation,
particularly in the area of health promotion and communication, it
addresses, too, the issue of financial sustainability, suggesting
robust mechanisms of economic and social regulation. New
opportunities created by e-health, evidence-based data and
artificial intelligence are all highlighted and discussed, as is
the issue of patient rights. Students and researchers across
bioethics, public health and medical sociology will find this book
fascinating reading, as will policy-makers in the field.
