Ethics and the Good Doctor brings together existing literature and
an analysis of empirical research conducted by the Jubilee Centre
for Character and Virtues to examine the ethical nature of medical
practice and explore medicine as a virtuous profession. The book is
based on the idea that medical practice is an inherently moral
profession, in which notions of trust, care and meaningful
relationships form the foundations of being a good doctor. By
taking into account the ethical dimensions of medical practice that
have come under greater scrutiny and pressure over recent years,
this book explores how personal and professional character is
understood, enacted, and experienced by medical practitioners at
various stages of their career. Ethics and the Good Doctor situates
and presents the empirical data in a way that is accessible to
practicing doctors, medical students, and medical educators. Clear
implications for policy, practice, and research are offered,
ensuring this book will be of great interest to a range of
stakeholders involved in medical practice, including those working
in medical policy.
