<br/><br/>Introduction -- Ethics, justice, and the social determinants of health -- Justice, compound disadvantage and health inequities -- Ethics, responsibility and social patterning of risk health behaviors -- The social determinants of health and public health practice. 
<br/><br/> This resource places concepts of social determinants of health in the larger contexts of contemporary health ethics and the evolution of social reform. It provides needed analysis of the larger causes behind the immediate causes of illness and epidemics, particularly injustice, systemic inequities, and the cumulative effect of compound disadvantages. This moral approach to collective and individual responsibilities--on the part of practitioners as well as the public--supports a sound blueprint for finding answers to longstanding global and local concerns. Readers are challenged to recognize the critical role of social determinants to their perception of health issues, controversies, and possibilities.
