This book has three ambitions:to show how to improve all aspects of health, personal and social, economic and environmental, to restore most public services to local council control where they originated, and to define a recovery strategy that ensures a sustainable future for all. It is a political agenda for action rather than an academic study.

McEldowney, Emeritus Professor of Planning) This book provides a post-Covid recovery strategy for the UK that is based on all aspects of health, but also addresses the ever-greater threat from global warming. Health and sustainability are interlocked.More than other European nations, we favour libertarian values over social equity, privatized public services and lower taxes that reduce those services. From fair-minded pragmatism, we have descended into dogma, incompetence and intolerance.Using the government's 5 guiding principles for a sustainable future, the book suggests how to improve distinct aspects of health:personal health through more preventive medicine;environmental health with lower transport and household emissions;economic health through local (rather than global) production of goods and services;social health by reducing gross health and wealth inequalities; andpolitical health through strategic commitment, fair taxes (a bedroom tax just on the poor ) and real devolution to local councils.We need to think local, act local and act now. 144 pp. Englisch.
