Essentials of Health Justice examines the social and structural determinants of health, systems of care for underserved populations, health equity, social justice and health policy.
Unlike other texts of its kind, Essentials of Health Justice uniquely focuses on the legal, structural, and justice issues underlying health disparities; the adequacy of current safety net programs and legal protections affecting the health of vulnerable populations; health policy, law and system design focused on achieving health equity; and concrete strategies for bringing about change to promote health justice.
Essentials of Health Justice can serve as a stand-alone text or supplement for a range of undergraduate, graduate, law, public health, medical, nursing and other health professions courses.
