Synopsis

When conflicts arise in health policy, the insights of policy scholars can contribute to crafting solutions to seemingly intractable problems. Beyond their mere technical attributes, health and medical policy issues require political acumen and policy knowledge to diagnose problems, inform debate, and devise policy interventions. The cases in this volume cover a range of health issues and illustrate how political theory and philosophy are critical to efforts aimed at treating public health challenges.
