Riassunto

Doing Right is a brief and practical introduction to medical ethics for medical trainees (students, interns, residents) and physicians. It avoids most jargon and instead concentrates on the concepts, issues, and ethical-legal precedents that health care practitioners need to be familiar with to practice medicine in an acceptable way. The book uses many real-life cases - some simple, some challenging - that help illustrate the application of modern ethics to everyday practice. Professionals in other health disciplines may find this book useful as the key issues discussed are often faced by them as well.
