内容説明
This book applies the well-established and productive concept of moral luck, originated by Bernard Williams and Thomas Nagel, to the field of medical ethics and practical politics. The paradox of moral luck arises because typically we maintain two incompatible attitudes towards right action and good character. Applying an analysis based on moral luck, and employing such concepts as uncertainty and risk, this book produces policy suggestions rooted in a systematic philosophical analysis. The concepts of chance and risk have a great deal to tell us about how we should allocate scarce health care resources; deal with matters of informed consent; treat secrecy and confidentiality; and decide what strategic policies are appropriate in a situation of uncertainty.
