Fletcher's Introduction to Clinical Ethics, 3rd Edition

To keep pace in this rapidly changing arena, the new edition of this introductory text in clinical ethics carries forward an approach tested over time with clinicians, students in the health professions, and members of ethics committees. The new edition is admirably current with, and informed by, the extensive literature in clinical, ethical, and legal topics relevant to these problems. In many ways this text serves as an important model for creative work in bioethics. First, it is interdisciplinary and interprofessional, not merely multidisciplinary and multiprofessional. Members of different disciplines and professions talked, taught, and wrote with each other to develop clear and compelling ideas about clinical ethics. This text provides the fruits of their conversations. . . . In short, this book reflects an ideal approach to both teaching and scholarship in bioethics. From the Foreword, by James C. Childress, PhD
