Essentials of Teaching and Learning in Nursing Ethics: Perspectives and Methods

This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. This book aims to fill a gap with an in-depth exploration of nursing ethics content from the western philosophical tradition and some of the methods used in teaching this content. It addresses cross-cultural issues in using specific ethics content. It also reveals the poverty of the present dualism model in nursing ethics and replace this with a more complex and more useful model that invites debate. Its scope is both wide and deep but that is needed to enrich the basis for teaching nursing ethics.Outlines and critiques all current ethical theories and considers their application to nursing practiceExplores ethical issues in numerous culturesIncludes case studies drawn from a range of countriesWritten by leading nurse educators and philosophers in the field
