Application of Systems Thinking to Health Policy & Public Health Ethics

Thisbook looks at health policy through the lens of public versus private: population health versus thesomatic, social, or emotional experiencesof apatient. Rather than presenting policy/ethics as overly technical, thisbook takes a novel approach of framing public and private health in terms of political philosophy, ethics, and popular examples. Each chapter ties back to the general ethics or political literature as applicable, which are not customarily parts of the current public health curriculum.The author'swork on the Orgcomplexity blog has touched on this subject by systemically exploring public policy issues, and thetone of this bookmimics theblog with an extension of the arguments.
