內容:This
book is a collection of articles about communication and
ethics in the field of medicine and health care. Common
to all the articles is that they are not directly based
on empirical investigations. The discussions refer to
research that has already been carried out and
documented in existing literature. In this sense, the
articles belong to what is often called applied
philosophy. All the articles address communicative and
ethical challenges in patient interaction on the basis
of assumptions in modern moral philosophy and philosophy
of language. There is a great need for literature that
deals more comprehensively with the themes discussed in
this book. It is particularly difficult to find suitable
material that can be used in teaching at the graduate
and master levels. Foundations of Health Care is
designed to meet this need. It is suitable for use in
all higher-level courses where the aim is to give
students a theoretical understanding of ethical dilemmas
and communicative challenges in health care.
