Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. A practical textbook and resource on clinical medical ethics written by a physician (Ahronheim), a philosopher (Moreno), and a lawyer (Zuckerman). It is designed as a flexible educational tool for clinicians, students, nurses, ethics committee members, attorneys, and others in health care.The book is divided into two main parts. The first six chapters provide an introduction and overview of clinical ethics as a distinct multidisciplinary field. They cover definitions, the history and emergence of modern clinical ethics, dominant moral theories (especially deontology and utilitarianism), core principles (autonomy/self-determination, beneficence, and justice), common distinctions (e.g., active vs. passive, ordinary vs. extraordinary, killing vs. letting die, withholding vs. withdrawing), ethical issues across the lifespan, critiques of the ?standard theory? (including casuistry, care ethics, and feminist perspectives), and a practical strategy or protocol for assessing and addressing ethical issues in clinical settings. The approach is predominantly case-oriented and casuistic.In short, it is a multidisciplinary introduction to the theory and practice of clinical ethics that combines foundational principles and frameworks with extensive real-world case analyses from medical, ethical, and legal viewpoints, intended to help health professionals navigate ethical dilemmas.ABOUT THIS COPY: First edition hardcover, bound in fire-engine red cloth with a black textbox on the front cover with gilt lettering.
