Thomas Pogge explains his proposal for dealing with the thorny intersection of public health, intellectual property rights, and poverty. As he sees it, the patent system doesn't work as well for medicines as it does for, say, consumer electronics. Please visit Public Ethics Radio to read more about this broadcast.

Public Ethics Radio is a production of the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics (CAPPE) in Canberra, Australia—the world's largest concentration of applied philosophers—in association with the Carnegie Council.
