In a world in which states promote the global privatization of health care resources, how are we to protect a doctor’s paramount virtue of commitment to the good of the patient? Thomas Faunce’s book deepens our appreciation of the ways in which the market tends to corrupt trustworthy medical practice. But—just as important—it suggests ways in which the profit motive might be harnessed to the relief of sick people.
(Bernadette Tobin, M.D., Plunkett Centre for Ethics, St. Vincent’s Hospital, Sydney)This book covers challenges for the medical profession from ethics to education and should be obligatory reading for all engaged in health service delivery now and in the future, from students and professionals to policy makers.
(Richard Ruffin, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, University of Adelaide)Across the globe, large corporations are dominating the supply and delivery of health care products and services and altering the behavior of health professionals. In Who Owns Your Health? Thomas Faunce applies moral, bioethical, and human rights perspectives to examine how the privatization of health care affects the public good.
Drawing on the author's rich knowledge of relevant law, philosophy, and literature, his personal experience on the front lines of clinical medicine, and interviews with players who are intimately familiar with the pharmaceutical industry, this elegantly written analysis explores the urgent issues surrounding growing corporate influence on health policy and medical professionalism. In addressing the inherent tensions involved in the business of health care, Faunce promotes a framework by which the benefits of corporate competition might be better harnessed to promote patient well-being while acknowledging the need to ensure that global health remains a sustainable enterprise.
