<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Case Studies in Health Care Ethics</em> is an ideal primary or supplemental text for college students taking a bioethics course, and will be useful to anyone involved in the health care field: medical personnel and their patients, medical researchers and their subjects. The book consists of twenty-four case studies - real-life events that raised moral dilemmas for health care professionals - and explores ethical issues relating to obesity, the right of patients to refuse treatment, doctor-patient confidentiality, animal experiments, surrogate motherhood, faith healing, abortion, euthanasia, Obamacare, and many other topics. Each case study describes the events that took place, offers a critique via ethical theories such as utilitarianism and Kantian ethics, and ends with some questions for ethical reflection. The writing is thought-provoking, clear, and concise, and has a storytelling quality that readers will find engaging.</p><p> </p><p>Timothy Eves received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Connecticut in 1993 and is now an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Bridgeport. He teaches a wide range of ethics courses, including Health Care Ethics.</p>
