Описание:

The learning and practice of medical ethics in a clinical setting requires many of the same structures and dynamics as the learning and practice of clinical medicine. In this study, basic yet controversial issues such as death and dying, truth-telling, confidentiality, and physician/patient relationships are treated in great depth. "Ethical Practice in Clinical Medicine" presents the theoretical sources of virtue ethics and then works through a number of medical ethics cases using the materials from the sources. In addition, it addresses directly practical clinical problems from an historical perspective by using classic texts by philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, William James and John Dewey.
