Much of our social and political effort, including a portion of the research in this university, is directed towards the promotion of one goal: health. But what is health? Or rather, how should we define health so that it is an identifiable goalpost for our social policies and technological developments? This lecture will discuss whether an appropriate goal for our health minded social policies and technological developments can be identified.
