Title |
Quick easy questions for analyzing medical ethics cases |
Date |
1997 |
Description |
Sometimes, traditional philosophical ways of analyzing medical-ethics cases seem just too cumbersome, particularly to people without training in ethical theory. The issues are important, interesting, often compellingly engaging. but it isn't the time for heavy jargon, or terms like "deontology" or "rule ulilitarian" or "distributive Justice" or any of the other concepts with which the field of medical ethics works; it's time to just get going at the issues. Here's an easy, effective set of questions to open discussion of cases; you can save the heavy jargon for later. |
