Traditional and Complementary Medicines: Are they Ethical for Humans, Animals and the Environment?: SpringerBriefs in Philosophy
Autor Kate Chatfielden Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 dec 2018
A systematic search of the literature reveals that most published ethical concerns are related to the safety of T&CM use for humans. However, application of the Ethical Matrix demonstrates that the ethical implications for T&CM use are much broader. In this book, the author analyses the most serious implications, including adverse events related to homeopathy, the use of animals in T&CM products, and the impact of herbal medicine on the environment. Comparisons with the ethical implications of conventional biomedicine help readers to contextualise debate, and highlight aspects that may be unique to T&CM.
Globally, many high-level health policy makerspromote T&CM as an accessible and affordable healthcare option. However, their use is considered by some to be a waste of resources, unscientific, and unethical. Offering a frank analysis of this largely ignored field of healthcare ethics, this book is both timely and essential. It helps patients, policy makers, practitioners, researchers, and students gain the knowledge they need to make more informed decisions.

Recenzii
“This book may be of most interest to students and educators, however, as a community I would suggest that we would all do well to consider the ethical implications of our practices, especially in the light of what we can contribute to dealing with the climate emergency in which we find ourselves.” (Hazel Partington, New Homeopath, Vol. 39 (1), 2020)
