Health Care Ethics and the Law is a comprehensive, practical resource designed for those preparing for a career in healthcare management. In 16 chapters, the text explains and illustrates ethical principles and their application in the real world, including material that is consistently cited by the U.S. Supreme Court and the nation’s highest appellate courts. The book also explores substantive theories of classic ethicists in the Western world, along with current scholarly literature from the nation’s leading ethicists.

With an emphasis on interpretation, insight, and ideas, Health Care Ethics and the Law guides healthcare professionals through the ethical decisions they will face in their everyday professional lives.
