Rethinking Health Care Ethics

This is an easy to read book that translates the often esoteric world of healthcare ethics into understandable and actionable insights for everyone. Whether a student, doctor, researcher, family member or just interested person - this book offers important information with a particular emphasis on learning. The framework for teaching clinical health care ethics is superb with well crafted cases examples that bring the topic to life. Compared to longer and more expensive texts on this same topic - this book delivers more at less cost and less pages!

This book is one which I wish had been available for me to read during my 40 odd years of practicing general internal medicine. Scher and Kozlowska offer a practical approach to ethical problem solving in a very readable and organized format. I totally agree with their recommendations and hope that their work will spur discussions on how to implement this approach in clinical work and training.
