Book Description
Doctors and medical students confront increasingly complicated ethical dilemmas. To respond effectively they need skills in ethical reasoning and an understanding of the law and professional guidance. This book helps them achieve these things. It provides practical advice and guidance that draws upon the large volume of enquiries received by the BMAs Medical Ethics Department.
Although rooted in moral theory and legal practice, the book is designed both to provide practical advice for doctors day to day working lives and to stimulate debate on broader areas of public policy.
