Patient, Heal Thyself: How the New Medicine Puts the Patient in Charge
ISBN: 9780195313727 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Veatch is one of the founding fathers of contemporary bioethics. In Patient, Heal Thyself, he sheds light on a fundamental change sweeping through the American health care system, a change that puts the patient in charge of treatment to an unprecedented extent. The change is in how we think about medical decision-making. Whereas medicine's core idea was that medical decisions should be based on the hard facts of science--the province of the doctor--the "new medicine" contends that medical decisions impose value judgments. Since physicians are not trained to make value...

Transplantation Ethics: Second Edition
ISBN: 9781626161689 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although the history of organ transplant has its roots in ancient Christian mythology, it is only in the past fifty years that body parts from a dead person have successfully been procured and transplanted into a living person. After fourteen years, the three main issues that Robert Veatch first outlined in his seminal study Transplantation Ethics still remain: deciding when human beings are dead; deciding when it is ethical to procure organs; and deciding how to allocate organs, once procured. However, much has changed. Enormous strides have been made in immunosuppression....

Hippocratic, Religious, and Secular Medical Ethics: The Points of Conflict
ISBN: 9781589019461 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Where should physicians get their ethics? Professional codes such as the Hippocratic Oath claim moral authority for those in a particular field, yet according to medical ethicist Robert Veatch, these codes have little or nothing to do with how members of a guild should understand morality or make ethical decisions. While the Hippocratic Oath continues to be cited by a wide array of professional associations, scholars, and medical students, Veatch contends that the pledge is such an offensive code of ethics that it should be summarily excised from the profession. What, then, should serve as... Where should physicians get their ethics? Professional codes such as the Hippocratic Oath claim moral authority for those in a particular field, ye... |

Disrupted Dialogue: Medical Ethics and the Collapse of Physician-Humanist Communication (1770-1980)
ISBN: 9780195169768 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Medical ethics changed dramatically in the past 30 years because physicians and humanists actively engaged each other in discussions that sometimes led to confrontation and controversy, but usually have improved the quality of medical decision-making. Before then medical ethics had been isolated for almost two centuries from the larger philosophical, social, and religious controversies of the time. There was, however, an earlier period where leaders in medicine and in the humanities worked closely together and both fields were richer for it. This volume begins with the 18th century Scottish...

Envisioning the Dream Through Art and Science
ISBN: 9780895038586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This monograph is the product of an interdisciplinary experiment--an artistic experiment and a psychological experiment--focused on dreams. Inspired by the prevalence of dream imagery and "dream logic" in surrealist art, the authors asked 100 art students to create digital images representing critical scenes from one of their dreams, then to create a surrealist collage from the digital images. The resulting collages tend to capture the surreality envisioned in actual works of surrealist art, as two collages included in the book illustrate. Inspired also by the psychological problem of...

Defining Death: The Case for Choice
ISBN: 9781626163553 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. New technologies and medical treatments have complicated questions such as how to determine the moment when someone has died. The result is a failure to establish consensus on the definition of death and the criteria by which the moment of death is determined. This creates confusion and disagreement not only among medical, legal, and insurance professionals but also within families faced with difficult decisions concerning their loved ones. Distinguished bioethicists Robert M. Veatch and Lainie F. Ross argue that the definition of death is not a scientific question but a social one...
