Reacting against the dominance of obligation-based moral theories
in both general and nursing ethics, the author proposes a 'strong'
(action-guiding) account of a virtue-based approach to moral
decision-making within contemporary nursing practice. Merits and
criticisms of obligation and virtue-based approaches to morality
are identified and examined. One of the author's central premises
is that the notions of moral goodness and badness carry more moral
weight than the traditionally important notions of moral rightness
and wrongness. Therefore, the author argues that in order to
deliver morally good care, it is vital to consider the kind of
nurse one is and this means examining one's moral character. This
book will be rewarding reading for a wide range of readers
including clinical nurses, nurse educators and nurse ethicists;
indeed, anyone interested in morality and ethics and the work of
nurses will find this book stimulating reading.
