A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Doing Right is a brief and practical introduction to medical ethics for medical trainees (students, interns, residents) and physicians. It avoids most jargon and instead concentrates on the concepts, issues, and ethical-legal precedents that health care practitioners need to be familiar with to practice medicine in an acceptable way. The book uses many real-life cases - some simple, some challenging - that help illustrate the application of modern ethics to everyday practice. Professionals in other health disciplines may find this book useful as the key issues discussed are often faced by them as well.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Doing Right is a concise and practical guide to ethical decision-making in medicine. The text is aimed at second and third year one-semester ethics courses offered in medical schools, health sciences departments and nursing programs. By taking an applied approach rather than a theoretical approach, this text serves the needs of medical and nursing students, residents and practising physicians by sorting through questions of moral principles relevant to the diverse and growing number of healthcare professionals.
