Medical Ethics: A Clinical Textbook and Reference for the Health Care Professions

-- Ruth Macklin, Albert Einstein College of Medicine

-- Arthur L. Caplan, The Hastings Center, Institute of Society, Ethics and the Life Sciences

" The editors' extensive experience in a medical setting has resulted in their choosing appropriate selections for a text that could easily be used in a medical school or other educational setting for health care professionals." -- Ruth Macklin, Albert Einstein College of Medicine

" I am delighted to say that "Medical Ethics" impresses me as an important and significant contribution to the field of bioethics. To my knowledge, there is no other anthology available that brings together in such a comprehensive fashion important clinical perspectives on moral problems in medicine. The strengths of the book are that it is solidly rooted in clinical action and practice, and that it successfully integrates case material drawn from law and medicine with interdisciplinary analyses. The anthology is detailed enough to allow for the careful investigation of single subjects, while at the same time rich enough to provide a solid overview of core issues in medical ethics." -- Arthur L. Caplan, The Hastings Center, Institute of Society, Ethics and the Life Sciences
