Rethinking health
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Campbell's book is an examination of what health is, and of how different definitions of health affect the way we structure society. Drawing heavily on Liberation Theology, he argues that justice demands that basic health care needs be met. The book is well written, thoughtful, and compassionate. It is a must read for anyone concerned about the provision of health care, or about the ways in which one's faith should structure thinking about the ethical life.
