Publisher's Synopsis

Explores the moral dilemmas posed by disparities in health across nations.

Millions around the world die from preventable diseases. Millions more suffer from poor health as a result of extreme poverty. Who bears responsibility for heath inequalities? Who should take responsibility for ameliorating them?Contributors to this volume consider whether health inequalities are a result of global distributive inequalities and are therefore of concern to those promoting global redistributive justice.
