New Code of Medical Ethics

This new edition of the American Medical Association's Code of Medical Ethics: Current Opinions with Annotations includes the revised AMA Code of Ethics as well as all new ethical opinions formulated by the AMA's Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs since the last edition was published in 2000. The new edition, like the prior editions, is a helpful guide to physician ethical guidelines in a variety of contexts and will be of interest to physicians, patients, attorneys, and ethicists. The materials are well organized and well indexed, and the annotations provide useful additional resources for those who wish to explore subjects in more depth.
