Recenzii
'Both our shared political discourse and the day-to-day encounters between physicians and their patients are characterized by complex questions about the place of conscience in medicine. Lauris Kaldjian, trained as both physician and ethicist, offers a way to think through these difficulties by focusing on medicine as a practice shaped by its goals and marked by important virtues. Both patients and physicians can find here help for thinking in moral terms about the encounters they share.' Gilbert Meilaender, Valparaiso University
'Lauris Kaldjian offers a rich exploration of the roles that conscience, integrity, and moral reasoning can play in promoting health care that is both medically and ethically sound. As physicians face ever-increasing challenges and pressures, Kaldjian provides an astute synthesis of the 'practical wisdom' that doctors need to navigate those challenges and pressures.' David Orentlicher, Indiana University Schools of Law and Medicine
