Autorenporträt


Sean A. Valles
is Associate Professor, jointly appointed to Michigan State University's Lyman Briggs College and Department of Philosophy, USA.

Rezensionen
"What is most notable about this book is the way that the author skillfully and with great nuance explicates and distils the arguments of the many debates about population health and the determinants of health. [...] Professor Valles has skillfully drawn together and woven into a coherent framework a diverse set of literature dating back to the 19th century and the origins of social medicine. He does justice to the literature and acknowledges the importance of integrating elements of modern preventive medicine with a sustained explication of the work of Geoffrey Rose. He also highlights the significance of modern frameworks such as the WHO Social Determinants of Health Commission."

Ross Upshur (University of Toronto) for the Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal

Valles deftly and compellingly responds to critics who see the turn to upstream determinants as overly broadening the domain of health and the purview of the medical and public health communities. [...] His work will be enormously useful to anyone eager for a thoughtful analysis of population health and it lays down a foundation for continuing conversations about what this exciting new field can and should be.

Christine A. Bachrach (Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science) for the American Journal of Preventive Medicine

The book is very accessible; no prior knowledge in philosophy or population health is necessary, although it would be helpful at times. Therefore, I do not hesitate to recommend it to a broad readership. Any population health practitioner or theoretician interested in thinking about meaning, reasoning, and ethics in population health will benefit from reading Valles's arguments, whether she works primarily in health care or comes from a public health perspective. I think the book would be a particularly interesting choice for interdisciplinary courses in public health ethics and medical humanities programs. Graduate students should be aware of the growing literature at the intersection between philosophy and population health. May these ideas catch on and contribute to better health for all.
Olaf Dammann (Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston) for the American Journal of Public Health (AJPH)
