Companion to the internationally acclaimed text Public Health Law: Power, Duty, Restraint, this reader can also be used as a stand-alone resource for students, practitioners, scholars,and teachers. It encompasses global issues that have changed the shape of public health in recent years including anthrax, SARS, pandemic flu, biosecurity, emergency preparedness, and the transition from infectious to chronic diseases caused by lifestyle changes in eating and physical activity. In addition to covering these new arenas, it includes discussion of classic legal and ethical tensions inherent to public health practice, such as how best to balance the police power of the state with individual autonomy.California/Milbank books on health and the public ;4.Public health lawsUnited StatesPublic healthMoral and ethical aspectsElectronic books.Public health lawsPublic healthMoral and ethical aspects.344.73/04344.7304Gostin Lawrence O(Lawrence Ogalthorpe)884710Milbank Memorial Fund.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451789803321Public health law and ethics2477013UNINA
