This comprehensive textbook analyzes the ethical issues of health
and health care in global perspective. Ideal for students of public
health, medicine, nursing and allied health professions, public
policy, and ethics, the book helps students in all these areas to
develop important competencies in their chosen fields. Applying a
comparative, or multicultural, approach, the book compares
different perspectives on ethical issues in various countries and
cultures, such as informed consent, withholding or withdrawing
treatment, physician-assisted suicide, reproductive health issues,
research with human subjects, the right to health care, rationing
of limited resources, and health system reform. Applying a
transnational, or cross-border, approach, the book analyzes ethical
issues that arise from the movement of patients and health
professionals across national borders, such as medical tourism and
transplant tourism, ethical obligations to provide care for
undocumented aliens, and the "brain drain" of health
professionals from developing countries.
Comprehensive in scope, the book includes selected readings
which provide diverse perspectives of people from different
countries and cultures in their own words. Each chapter contains an
introductory section centered on a specific topic and explores the
different ways in which the topic is viewed around the globe.
Ethics in Health Services and Policy is designed to
promote student participation and offers methods of activity-based
learning, including factual scenarios for analysis and discussion
of specific ethical issues.
