Giving Voice to Values as a Professional Physician provides
students with the theoretical background and practical applications
for acting on their values in situations of ethical conflict. It is
the first medical ethics book that utilizes the Giving Voice to
Values methodology to instruct students in medical ethics and
professionalism. In doing so, it shifts the focus of ethics
education from intellectually examining ethical theories and
conflicts to emphasizing moral action. Each section of the book
explains how moral decision-making and action can be implemented in
the healthcare arena. Medical ethics cases are provided throughout
in order to assist students in giving voice to their values and
developing skills for professional action. The Giving Voice to
Values methodology, and the cases in this book, do not focus on the
big questions of academic ethics, but rather on the ethics of the
everyday, even if the challenges presented are difficult. In other
words, the ethical questions students will have to face, in this
book and in medical education and practice, are about how to
interact with others, whether they be patients or colleagues, who
might have different ethical positions. The book provides a unique
guide for professional identity formation and the teaching of
ethics in medical schools.
