Second, it describes and discusses public health law and policy issues through the lenses of individual, government, professional, and marketplace autonomy and responsibility. Finally, the text unifies the content of health law and policy with the skills needed to analyze this content."--BOOK JACKET.Teitelbaum, Joel is the author of 'Essentials of Public Health Law and Policy ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780763734428 and ISBN 076373442X.
