Critically Thinking About Medical Ethics by Robert F Card

Critically Thinking About Medical Ethics by Robert F Card

For undergraduate medical ethics and bioethics courses. Ground-breaking text applies critical thinking tools to medical ethics readings, and explains the dialogue which is formed by the readings in each chapter and clarifies how the various thinkers respond to one another in a common discussion. The text's unified approach offers a critical thinking pedagogy to pull the many readings and ethical perspectives together.

"This is a very interesting and innovative approach..[The book includes] a limited number of central topics which are treated in greater depth than in the texts currently on the market. That the material is presented in a way that facilitates dialogical and critical philosophical thinking about the issues is a real plus. I greatly prefer this approach ....[Card's introductions] are better than the introductions I am familiar with in the texts currently on the market." — Louis I. Katzner, Bowling Green State University

"I think this book has some real advantages over the competition. Its editorial material is lively, interesting and comprehensive enough, without being overwhelming; it is highly readable and accessible to the novice reader; and the editorial introductions are very well-done and helpful ....I like the style very much, and I think my students would as well." — Phebe Saunders Haugen, William Mitchell College of Law

"Card will certainly seem the best choice to many people who teach this course." — Anthony Preus, Binghamton University
