Named a 2013 Doody's Core Title! |With great timing, the editors of Rights-Based Approaches to Public Health offer a targeted and innovative strategy to combat global health problems. Balanced, comprehensive, and steeped in the historical traditions of human rights, the book persuasively moves the reader from abstract conceptions of inalienable human rights to evidence-based, pragmatic solutions that highlight the systematic integration of human rights principles in human development work.|--PsycCRITIQUES |The human rights framework as eloquently described in this book offers a new way for us to think about how we approach our work: from deciding when and how to intervene, to how we plan, the goals we establish, and the metrics we use to gauge the success of our efforts. Public health instructors will find many of the chapters useful for illustrating, in very concrete ways, the link between human rights and public health, providing students (and practitioners) with a new framework for analyzing public health topics and for designing and evaluating interventions. Ultimately, civil rights and civil liberties are only of value when exercised. This book will contribute to the advance of human rights by leading increasing numbers of public health practitioners to advocate for, and promote, their realization.|Score: 95, 4 stars --Doody's Medical Reviews |Rights Based Approaches to Public Health provides a new perspective on addressing public health problems.

Benjamin, MD, FACP, FACEP Executive Director of the American Public Health Association |At root, those working in health and human rights are both animated by a similar concern: the well-being of individuals and populations.
