In this book, Sally Satel identifies and critiques the burgeoning phenomenon of "politically correct" medicine, which seeks to remedy social oppression by ensuring the equitable distribution of public health. She argues that incorporating social justice into the mission of medicine diverts attention and resources from the effort to prevent and combat disease for everyone, regardless of race or sex.
This forthcoming book from the AEI Press, edited by Sally Satel, M.D., explores the key ethical, theoretical, and practical concerns of a government-regulated donor compensation program. It is the first book to describe how such a system could be designed to be ethically permissible, economically justifiable, and pragmatically achievable.
