Presenting a philosophical exploration of the ideas central to
health care practice this book explores such concepts as caring,
health, disease, suffering and pain from a phenomenological
perspective. With deep philosophical insight this book draws out,
not only the ethical demands that arise when one encounters these
phenomena, but also the forms of ethical education that would help
health care workers respond to those demands. This is a book which
explores the grounds for ethical living rather than enunciating
ethical principles. Van Hooft argues that ethical responses arise
from sensitive and insightful awareness of what is salient in
clinical and other health care settings. This book draws upon
thinkers from the classical canon, the Anglo-American tradition and
from continental philosophical ideas.
