Klappentext zu „Rethinking Health Care Ethics “
The goal of this open access book is to develop an approach to clinical health care ethics that is more accessible to, and usable by, health professionals than the now-dominant approaches that focus, for example, on the application of ethical principles. The book elaborates the view that health professionals have the emotional and intellectual resources to discuss and address ethical issues in clinical health care without needing to rely on the expertise of bioethicists. The early chapters review the history of bioethics and explain how academics from outside health care came to dominate the field of health care ethics, both in professional schools and in clinical health care. The middle chapters elaborate a series of concepts, drawn from philosophy and the social sciences, that set the stage for developing a framework that builds upon the individual moral experience of health professionals, that explains the discontinuities between the demands of bioethics and the experience and perceptions of health professionals, and that enables the articulation of a full theory of clinical ethics with clinicians themselves as the foundation. Against that background, the first of three chapters on professional education presents a general framework for teaching clinical ethics; the second discusses how to integrate ethics into formal health care curricula; and the third addresses the opportunities for teaching available in clinical settings. The final chapter, "Empowering Clinicians", brings together the various dimensions of the argument and anticipates potential questions about the framework developed in earlier chapters.Inhaltsverzeichnis zu „Rethinking Health Care Ethics “

Pressezitat
"There is much to admire about Scher and Kozlowska's approach, and much to aspire to in their vision of the future of health care ethics. The book is smoothly written and easy to read; it is provocative without being abrasive. It is a valuable counterweight to overly formal, technical approaches to medical ethics." (Samuel Reis Dennis, Monash Bioethics Review, April 18, 2020)
"There are many reasons to recommend Scher and Kozlowska's text. It presents an excellent case for rethinking the way that health care ethics is taught to health practitioners. It is well written, thoughtful, brief, and freely available via open access online, which should give it wide appeal and make it eminently suitable as a teaching text. ... the authors are making a potentially significant contribution to an ecological turn away from merely instrumental and toward truly humane health care practice." (Patrick Daly, Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics, Vol. 40, August 07, 2019)
"These authors provide a comprehensive review of social science literature and an exploration of how the rise of bioethics in the US and the European response to bioethics culminated in the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights. ... Scher and Kozlowska's goal is the empowerment of clinicians to respect their moral thinking when addressing health care dilemmas. Summing Up: Recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty and professionals." (B. A. D'Anna, Choice, Vol. 56 (11), July, 2019)
"The book is a lucid critique of healthcare ethics as a [distinct] subject; a critique that naturally leads into constructive suggestions for an alternative pedagogy. The book should be of high interest to teachers in healthcare ethics, to ethicists, and to anyone who finds that ethics often is presented in ways that make us estranged from ourselves. What most impresses me in this book is its trust in the human. The foundation of ethics is in the human self, not
