Reviews"Extremely well done for both undergraduate and graduate introduction to medical ethics courses. This text is comprehensive in its treatment of the issues I cover in my semester-length course on medical ethics."--John Thomas Meadors, Mississippi College "I found the book to be fairly comprehensive; there is simply more to choose from in this book. It is up to date and the inclusion of stats and figures are still current and relevant."--Kristemn Kringle-Bear, University of North Caroline Wilmington, Extremely well done for both undergraduate and graduate introduction to medical ethics courses.
