Ethical Dilemmas and Nursing Practice 5e
Anne J. Davis RN, PhD, DSc (hon), FAAN
Marsha D. Fowler, PhD, MDiv, MS, RN, FAAN
Mila Ann Aroskar, EdD, DSc (hon)
Since the first edition of this important book published in 1978, the limits of health care have expanded, and the types of ethical dilemmas facing nurses have increased. This new edition presents the pros and cons of current and classic issues that result in ethical dilemmas faced by nurses every day.
Using a principle-based theoretical framework, which is the framework used by health science professionals, these chapters present the most current issues confronted by our health-care system. Case studies in each chapter bring these issues alive, and the discussion questions provide a framework for reflection.
New:
Chapter on human genome mapping, including a discussion of the policy debate
