"Indignity has many faces," one man told Nora Jacobson as she conducted interviews for this book. Its expressions range from rudeness, indifference, and condescension to objectification, discrimination, and exploitation. Yet dignity can also be promoted. Another man described it as "common respect," suggesting dignity's ordinariness, and the ways we can create and share it through practices like courtesy, leveling, and contribution. Dignity and Health examines the processes and structures of dignity violation and promotion, traces their consequences for individual and collective health, and uses the model developed to imagine how we might reform our systems of health and social care. With its focus on the dignity experiences of those often excluded from the mainstream--people who are poor, or homeless, or dealing with mental health problems--as well as on vulnerabilities like age or sickness or unemployment that threaten to make us all feel "less than," Dignity and Health recognizes dignity as a moral matter embedded in the choices we make every day. 000642744 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000642744 650_0 $$aMedical ethics. 000642744 650_0 $$aDignity. 000642744 650_0 $$aMedical care. 000642744 650_0 $$aRight to health. 000642744 650_0 $$aHuman rights. 000642744 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJacobson, Nora, 1964-$$tDignity and health.$$dNashville : Vanderbilt University Press, c2012$$z9780826518613$$z9780826518620$$w(DLC) 2012003426$$w(OCoLC)774213747 000642744 8520_ $$bacq 000642744 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000642744 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3040109$$zOnline Access 000642744 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:642744$$pGLOBAL_SET 000642744 980__ $$aEBOOK 000642744 980__ $$aBIB 000642744 982__ $$aEbook 000642744 983__ $$aOnline
