Abstract

'It is refreshing to see a book on bioethics that is both comprehensive and easily readable. This is a case-based book packed with high-quality information … clever combination of academic material with practical case studies has resulted in a remarkably powerful and user-friendly book. It will probably succeed in making you at least try to think ethically.' Doctor 'This is a book with a great deal to commend it. The discussions are enlivened by an excellent panel of contributors, and the format is engaging.' Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine 'This is a text which has benefited from the input of many people in its preparation. it is easy to read, and full of interesting and engaging reflective activities … The early chapters are collected in a Part 1 entitled Ethical Issues Raised by Developments in Modern Medicine. Part II, entitled Vulnerability, Truth-telling, Competence and Confidentiality, is a collection of chapters on long-term care, mental health, the elderly, and children. The excellent section on children is one of the strengths of the book. Here, the ethics issues are discussed, and cases are presented which acknowledge the child's personal, family, social and medical context.' Monash Bioethics Review 'The style encourages readers to work through subjects and deliberate on issues raised and apply this to their own situations. Due to its flexibility, readers with little previous knowledge will benefit … an excellent resource for introducing ethics to medical students.' Palliative Medicine 'The editors of this Cambridge workbook should be congratulated for its success in rendering medical ethics lively, enticing, and user-friendly … this book should entice not only clinicians and health care professionals who have a special interest in biomedical ethics, but selected chapters will also be useful for postgraduate training in internal medicine, paediatirics, psychiatry and, above all, medical research.' Hong Kong Medical Journal 'As might be expected from a Cambridge University Press Workbook this is a very professional, clear and competent piece of work. Overall this should be a very useful Workbook to use the medical students and health-care workers who are being introduced to medical ethics for the first time. It is reliable, easy to use and provides a full bibliography of other resources.' Addition Biology 7 'The style of the book with its case studies, vignettes, ethical debate and topic selection, suits many educational scenarios … a book like this will be of major assistance in helping individuals and organisation, in a stimulating, enabling and facilitating manner, to improve prevalent standards of clinical practice.' D. Pritchard

Abstract

Western medicine - especially in contrast with no-Western traditions of medical practice - is widely thought of as a coherent and unified field in which beliefs, definitions, and judgments are shared. Marc Berg and Annemarie Mol debunk this myth with an interdisciplinary and intercultural collection of essays that reveals the significantly varied ways practitioners of 'conventional' Western medicine handle bodies, study test results, configure statistics, and converse with patients. Combining theoretical work with interviews and direct observation of the activities and interactions of doctors, nurses, technicians, and patients, the contributors to this volume provide comparative studies of specific cases. Individual chapters explore topics such as the contested domain of fetal surgery in a California hospital, the construction of gender identity before transsexual surgery in Germany, and differences in the treatment and definition of pain by two clinics in France. 'Differences in Medicine' advances earlier studies on medicine's social diversity and regional variations to expose significant differences in the presumptions and decisions that affect patients' lives, and marks a dramatic development in both the study of medicine and in science studies generally. Revealing the ways in which the bodies and lives of people are constructed as medical objects by practitioners, technologies, and textbooks, this collection calls for and initiates new, more textured theories of the body and investigations in medicine and the practice of science. Marc Berg is a researcher at the School of Health Sciences at Maastricht University. Annemarie Mol is Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Twente.

Abstract

This casebook collects 64 case studies, each of which raises an important and difficult ethical issue connected with planning, reviewing, or conducting health-related research. The book’s purpose is to contribute to thoughtful analysis of these issues by researchers and members of research ethics committees (RECs, known in some places as ethical review committees or institutional review boards), particularly those involved with studies that are conducted or sponsored internationally.

Abstract

The existing literature in medical ethics does not serve the practical needs of medical students and trainees very well, as the dilemmas posed are generally beyond their direct control, and being a student or junior doctor brings its own set of ethical concerns. The editors have addressed this need by compiling a series of case studies from around the world and inviting an international team of leading ethicists and clinicians to comment on them. Over 80 actual cases cover the range of possible problems a medical trainee may encounter on the ward, from drug and alcohol abuse, whistleblowing and improper sexual conduct to performing procedures, handling authority, disclosure, blaming, personal responses to patients, and misrepresentation of research. The book will be an essential guide on how to cope with the ethical dilemmas of those embarking on medical careers.
