Review of The Ethics of Screening in Health Care and Medicine

My and Niklas Juth's new book The Ethics of Screening in Health Care and Medicine: Serving Society or Serving the Patient? is reviewed by Pekka Louhiala in very favourable terms in an essay now published  online by Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy. Alas, it is behind a paywall (unless you or your library has a Springerlink subscription), although you may sample the first page for free. Here, however is the conclusion of it all:

In summary, The Ethics of Screening in Health Care and Medicine is practical philosophy at its best: scientifically well informed, balanced, carefully argued and highly relevant for the practice of medicine and health care.
