Starting with detailed cases based on real life, the fourth edition
of Ethics in Nursing introduces the principles, concepts, and
reasoning needed to think them through. Changes in this edition
reflect important developments in nursing, ethical theory, and
nursing ethics. Among the expanded set of 64 cases, 22 have been
significantly revised and 15 are entirely new. Reasoning skills and
philosophical understanding are explained and illustrated in cases
involving: nurses and clients; inter-professional relationships;
personal responsibility for institutional and public policy; and
cost containment, justice, and rationing. New material on ethical
theory includes an illustrated explanation and defense of moral
pluralism, a section on the ethics of care, and an expanded
discussion of reflective equilibrium as a method of ethical
reasoning. New topics include pandemics and care for SARS patients,
elderly patients contemplating suicide, and workplace violence. As
with previous editions, both the nursing and philosophical content
are self-contained, making the book accessible to readers with
little or no background in either. Ethics in Nursing provides
practicing and student nurses with a useful introduction to the
identification and analysis of ethical issues that reflects both
the special perspective of nursing and the value of systematic
philosophical inquiry.
