Technology, policy, ethics, and public health: a select bibliography

The enclosed bibliography, which includes nearly 400 entries, is organized into two main parts. Part One, consisting of Sections 1 and 2, identifies sources that examine technology and policy issues associated with public health. Among the topics considered in the works cited in Part One are risk assessment, genetic and genomic research, and privacy and confidentiality. Part Two, made up of Sections 3 and 4, includes sources that examine ethical issues in public health. Whereas Section 3 lists sources that consider ethical issues in occupational health and safety as well as in environmental health and ecological sustainability, ethical issues related to professional codes of conduct are considered in sources listed in Section 4. Also listed in Section 4 are selected sources on ethical theory and its application. Although the bibliography is fairly comprehensive, it is by no means intended as an exhaustive work
