Anotace knihy

This edited collection interrogates global health and especially the scourge of the COVID-19 pandemic and the role that science has played in mitigating the human experiences of pandemics and health over the centuries. Pandemics have always been part of the human vicissitudes. Science has always been at the forefront of the human attempt at undermining the virulent consequences of sicknesses and diseases on humans and, in doing this, science over time has evolved the scientific method founded on the scientific image of humans. The scientific image of humans in the world considers itself to possess the complete image of the whole truth about humans. This volume challenges this scientific assumption. Global health denotes the complex and cumulative health profile of humanity that involves not only the framework of scientific researches and practices that investigates and seeks to improve the health of all people on the globe, but also the range of humanistic issues - economic, cultural, social, ideological - that constitute the sources of inequities and threat to the achievement of a positive global health profile. This volumes balances the argument that diseases and pandemics are human problems that demand both scientific and humanistic interventions.
