This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States.
This book aims to fill a gap with an in-depth exploration of nursing ethics content from the western philosophical tradition and some of the methods used in teaching this content.
It addresses cross-cultural issues in using specific ethics content.
It also reveals the poverty of the present dualism model in nursing ethics and replace this with a more complex and more useful model that invites debate.
Its scope is both wide and deep but that is needed to enrich the basis for teaching nursing ethics.
- Outlines and critiques all current ethical theories and considers their application to nursing practice
- Explores ethical issues in numerous cultures
- Includes case studies drawn from a range of countries
- Written by leading nurse educators and philosophers in the field
