Summary
Some aspects of public health vary by locality or jurisdiction. Political challenges are not one of them. As governments on every scale become motivated by short-term economic gains, the essential causes of public health and equity are regularly subject to political questioning and financial shortcutting. 'Governing for Health' is a counterpoint to this myopic approach - a passionate, rigorous case for why the health of a society is both its greatest measure and its most untapped source of prosperity.
