Reproductive Ethics in Clinical Practice: Preventing, Initiating, and Managing Pregnancy and Delivery--Essays Inspired by the MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics Lecture Series

Editat de Julie Chor, Katie Watson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2022
Reproductive health care professionals in fields such as Obstetrics and Gynecology, Family Medicine, and Pediatrics face difficult ethical issues because they work at the crossroads of patient decision-making, scientific advancement, political controversy, legal regulation, and profound moral considerations. The dilemmas these professionals face expose big-picture bioethics questions of interest to everyone. Yet for clinicians striving to deliver excellent patient care, the ethical questions that make daily practice challenging can be just as nuanced.This volume presents a carefully curated compilation of essays written by leading experts in the fields of medicine, ethics, and law, who address key issues at the forefront of reproductive ethics. It is organized into three main sections: I. Contraception and Abortion Ethics - Preventing Pregnancy and Birth, II. Assisted Reproduction Ethics - Initiating Pregnancy, and III. Obstetric Ethics - Managing Pregnancy and Delivery. Each section begins with a short introduction by the editors providing an overview of the area and contextualizing the essays that follow. This volume's primary aim is to be useful to practicing clinicians, students, and trainees by providing short and practical essays covering urgent topics--from race, religion and abortion, to legal liability, violations of confidentiality and maternal choices that risk future children's health. This collection provides clinicians at all levels of training with frameworks they need to approach the intimate and high-stakes encounters central to their profession.

Recenzii

Reproductive ethics in clinical practice is a timely and important resource. Masterfully curated by Julie Chor (an obstetrician-gynecologist) and Katie Watson (a bioethics professor and lawyer), the book deftly integrates scholarly depth with actionable guidance for practicing clinicians.
a very well-researched and carefully curated collection of essays ... a much-needed review of ethics and a well-argued re-framing of these concepts within the world of obstetrics
This important, timely collection of 15 essays is organized into three sections covering, respectively, contraception and abortion, assisted reproduction, and pregnancy and delivery.
