| A collection of essays from a variety of sources, this text presents ethical concerns for nurses. The objectives are to sensitize the nurse and other health professionals to the role that ethics plays in the practice of one's profession, and to provide an overview of professional ethics in the health fields. It poses the moral question of whether nurses should study ethics, and offers teaching strategies for those who decide to learn. The
nature of ethical decision making and major issues involved in nursing research and human experiments, which have an ethical base, are explored. |

The information is important for today's nurses and can be used by professionals and students at all levels." -- M.J. Thompson, University of North Dakota, CHOICE, December 1990 |
