The book provides a detailed introduction to a major debate in
bioethics, as well as a rigorous account of the role of conscience
in professional decision-making. Exploring the role of conscience
in healthcare practice, this book offers fresh counterpoints to
recent calls to ban or severely restrict conscience objection. It
provides a detailed philosophical account of the nature and moral
import of conscience, and defends a prima facie right to
conscientious objection for healthcare professionals. The book also
has relevance to broader debates about religious liberty and civil
rights, such as debates about the rights and duties of persons and
institutions who refuse services to clients on the basis of a
religious objection. The book concludes with a discussion of how to
regulate individual and institutional conscientious objection, and
presents general principles for the accommodation of individual
conscientious objectors in the healthcare system. This book will be
of value to students and scholars in the fields of moral
philosophy, bioethics and health law.
