What is health policy for? In Health and the Good Society, Alan Cribb addresses this question in a way that cuts across disciplinary boundaries.

His core argument is that biomedical ethics should draw upon public health values and ethics; specifically, he argues that everybody has some share of responsibility for health, including a responsibility for promoting greater health equality. In the process, Cribb argues for a major rethink of the whole project of health education.

The following topics are covered:

  • The Evolving Value Field of Healthcare

  • The Diffusion of the Public Health Agenda

  • Producing the Goods: Health, Welfare, and Well-being

  • Participation in Health Decisions: Patient and Community Empowerment

  • Health Policy Ethics

  • Health Promotion and the Good Society

  • The Distribution of Health and Healthcare

  • Responsibility for Health

  • Institutions and Vocations

  • Professional Ethics in Context

  • Managing Healthcare: Making or breaking healthcare goods?

  • The Boundaries of Professional Legitimacy

  • Education, Ethics, and Agenda Setting

  • Rethinking Health Education

  • Towards a Socially Reflexive Healthcare Ethics

  • Making the Health Agenda
