Synopsis

This ethics guide for physicians, scholars, and jurists contains 200 opinions issued individually or from reports by the AMA's Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs issued through 2005, as well as its nine Principles of Medical Ethics from 2001. Sections cover social policy issues; interprofessional and hospital relations; confidentiality, advertising, and communications media relations; fees and charges; records; practice matters; professional rights and responsibilities; and the patient-physician relationship. This edition, which replaces those previously published, also has new opinions on physician health and wellness, obligation in disaster preparedness and response, direct-to-consumer diagnostic imaging tests, and resident involvement in patient care, as well as new advice on organ transplantation, racial and ethnic health care disparities, and medical testimony. Annotations follow each opinion and contain summaries of all reported court decisions, selected state attorney general opinions, and selected journal articles. They were prepared by scholars at the Southern Illinois U. Schools of Medicine and Law. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
