Torture written by Neve Gordon and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1995 with Human rights categories.

This book is a contribution to our understanding of the ongoing practice of torture and the issues raised for society as a whole and the medical profession in particular. In focusing on Israel where over 400,000 Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza have been detained or gaoled since 1967 and where, despite the faltering peace process, the security forces still lock up and ill-treat several thousand people annually, this book is a timely examination of torture in Israel and the Occupied Territories. Its analysis and evidence are supplemented by action-oriented recommendations for an international campaign against torture, the role that codes of medical ethics (reproduced in this book's Appendixes) can play, and use of the legal system within Israel itself.

In the summer of 1964 medical professionals, mostly white and northern, organized the Medical Committee for Human Rights (MCHR) to provide care and support for civil rights activists organizing black voters in Mississippi. They left their lives and lucrative private practices to march beside and tend the wounds of demonstrators from Freedom Summer, the March on Selma, and the Chicago Democratic Convention of 1968. Galvanized and sometimes radicalized by their firsthand view of disenfranchised communities, the MCHR soon expanded its mission to encompass a range of causes from poverty to the war in Vietnam. They later took on the whole of the United States healthcare system. MCHR doctors soon realized fighting segregation would mean not just caring for white volunteers, but also exposing and correcting shocking inequalities in segregated health care. They pioneered community health plans and brought medical care to underserved or unserved areas. Though education was the most famous battleground for integration, the appalling injustice of segregated health care levelled equally devastating consequences. Award-winning historian John Dittmer, author of the classic civil rights history Local People: The Struggle for Civil Rights in Mississippi, has written an insightful and moving account of a group of idealists who put their careers in the service of the motto “Health Care Is a Human Right.”

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.

The book is intended to be an introductory guide for healthcare practitioners, legal practitioners, healthcare students and law students who are concerned with the delivery of healthcare services in South Africa. The book emphasises the ethical and legal aspects of healthcare in the country while making references to international human rights and ethical standards applicable to healthcare services. As the book is a guide, it does not deal exhaustively with the topics discussed. Instead it aims to give healthcare and legal practitioners some general guidelines. New edition update: - an updated ethics chapter that includes a robust section on African indigenous values in the context of health care. - a chapter on universal health care coverage and the NHI. - the legislation need to be reviewed and updated. - a section on alternate dispute resolution. - the section on research also requires updating. - the case studies also need to be made more recent to include current contextually relevant issues like the Life Esidimeni Tragedy.
