Anotacija:

     "This volume shows the range and sophistication in arguments feminist philosophers have made about the connections and tensions between ideals of justice and care. By collecting in one place some of the most important contributions to this discussion, Justice and Care brings this conversation to a new stage of conceptualizing the mutual conditioning of these ideals." — Iris Young, University of Pittsburgh.

     "The title says it all. These are the essential readings in feminist ethics, now collected in a single volume. This book is ideal for courses as well as for pondering the effects of gender inequality on our very capacity to think about morality." — Nancy Fraser, New School for Social Research.

     This compact anthology traces the exploration of the relationship between the ideals of justice and care—a discussion at the core of contemporary feminist ethics. In addition to compiling the most influential previously published work, Justice and Care offers two important new chapters by Alison Jaggar and Sara Ruddick.

Anotacija:

     This book defines management mistakes and offers a variety of models to classify and interpret them. It describes the evolution of management mistakes, techniques for identifying and disclosing mistakes, the relationship between management and medical mistakes, and steps to prevent and correct them. Seven case studies, drawn from a real set of events in healthcare organizations, describe management mistakes and are followed by commentaries by experts in the field of healthcare management, indicating measures that might have produced more positive outcomes.

     Ultimately, managers will not be completely successful in making healthcare better and more cost-effective without viewing mistakes as learning opportunities. This book is written for healthcare managers throughout the world and for the benefit of their patients, staff, and communities.

The Limits of Medical Paternalism defines and morally assesses paternalistic interventions, especially in the context of modern medicine and health care.

Anotacija:

"What is the meaning of life?" - is a question that has long been out of fashion among Western philosophers, even though it is widely recognized as expressing worries that many people feel about their lives and life in general. The Quest for Meaning deals with two main themes: first, facts about life which may seem to make it meaningless - death; the lack of an ultimate purpose; the prevalence of suffering. Second, self-realization if, and in what sense, this is a satisfactory or coherent ideal.

Pavadinimas: THE RIGHT TO DIE AN HISTORICAL AND LEGAL PERSPECTIVE OF EUTHANASIA
Autoriai: DEREK HUMPRY AND ANN WICKETT
Metai:
ISBN: 0-9606030-9-3
Brūkšninis kodas: 4202164
Ieškoti VUB kataloge
Anotacija:

     This book is an attempt to explain the complexities of the most controversial issue of the 1980s and 1990s against the historical, legal, religious and cultural background.

     The Right To Die is the result of objective research into and analysis of a subject that is not only controversial but difficult to define quickly or easily a person`s right to choose to die, whether alone or with help of another.

     In 1988 an attempt in California to change the law to permit physician-assisted suicide of a terminally ill person failed. Fresh reform attempts were made in Washington and Oregon in 1991 and in California again in 1992.

     In The Right To Die, the authors give a complete history of the subject, beginning with Greek and Roman attitudes towards dying. They cover active and passive euthanasia, suicide, mercy killing, and the medical and legal issues, as well as the moral and ethical questions on both sides.

Anotacija:

     Modernising scientific medicine emerged in the nineteenth century as an increasingly powerful agent of change in a context of complex social developments. Womens' lives and expectations in particular underwent a transformation in the
years after 1870 as education, employment opportunities and political involvement extended their personal and gender horizons. For women, medicine came to offer not just treatment in the event of illness but the possibilities of participation in medical practise, of shaping social policies and political understandings, and of altering the biological imperatives of their bodies. The essays in this collection explore various ways in which women responded to these challenges and opportunities and sought to use the power of modernising Western medicine to further their individual and gender interests.
     The Wellcome Series in the History of Medicine provides a regular and active forum for the publication of research into the history of medicine and health care in all their branches in various cultures and all time periods.
