内容説明

May discusses the fundamental features of a liberal society- chiefly, the individual's rights to make decisions for him- or herself-then applies them in the most important relational issues in health care: patients' autonomy and professionals' rights of conscience. Issues concerning patients' rights are at the center of bioethics, but the political basis for these rights has rarely been examined
