内容説明・目次
内容説明
This is a practical introduction to the range of ethical questions which doctors and other health-care professionals may be expected to encounter in practice. The book covers both the traditional "end of life" and "beginning of life" issues and also deals with medical research and consent issues, confidentiality and AIDS, resource allocation, care of the mentally ill, and the doctor/patient relationship. Each chapter canvasses a range of ethical views, drawing both from traditional philosophical responses and the most recent contemporary responses. Theoretical discussion is extended and enlivened by the use of hypothetical and actual examples, suitable both for private study or group discussion. While the needs of medical students for a non-technical guide to ethics have been kept firmly in mind, the avoidance of specialist medical and philosophical terminology ensures that it will be of value to students of nursing and related disciplines, and accessible to the lay reader.
