Livre

Gert, Bernard (1934-...). Auteur | Culver, Charles M.. Auteur | Clouser, K. Danner. Auteur

Edité par Oxford University Press - 2006 - 2nd ed.

This book uses the systematic account of our common morality developed by one of its authors to provide a useful foundation for dealing with the moral problems and disputes that occur in the practice of medicine. The analyses of impartiality, rationality, and of morality as a public system not only explain why some bioethical questions, such as the moral acceptability of abortion, cannot be resolved, but also provide a method for determining the correct answer for those occasions when a bioethical question has a unique correct answer. This new edition includes an entire chapter that has been added to address the controversial issue of abortion within the authors' distinct framework

Introduction. Morality. Moral disagreement. Particular moral rules and special duties. Principlism. Malady. Mental maladies. What doctors must know about medical practice. Adequate information, competence, and coercion. Paternalism and its justification. Death. Euthanasia.
