Sinopsis del Libro

Social epidemiology is based on the indisputable fact that, in any given society, neither biology nor lifestyle affect health inequality as much as social and economic inequality do. This groundbreaking collection of essays tackles the philosophical questions posed by this new discipline in a systematic and interdisciplinary way by considering the ways in which social epidemiology interplays with theories of justice, the line between science and ethics, biopolitical debates, and law.
