Moral capacity is an important feature of what it means to be
human. In this volume, the contributors have taken on the daunting
task of trying to distinguish between legal and moral capacity.
This distinction is difficult at times for clinicians, philosophers
and legal scholars alike. Part of the challenge of defining moral
capacity lies in the difficulty of adequately categorizing it. For
this reason, the editors have chosen to divide the book into three
parts. The first looks at the concepts involved in the discussion
of moral capacity; the second considers the role of moral capacity
in the lives of professionals; and the final part reflects on case
studies of moral capacity or incapacity illustrating the challenge
that moral capacity presents - its definition lying between two
seemingly incommensurable models, those of the threshold and
continuum.
This volume takes a multidisciplinary approach to the subject, and
ties the disciplines of medicine, philosophy and law into the
health context. It will be of interest to medical health
professionals as well as researchers working in the areas of
philosophy and law.
