Bioethics - Jestoni Maniago - Bog

Ethics is a principle that describes what is right and correct and wrong or incorrect concerning behaviour. Ethics and ethical practice are integrated into all aspects of nursing care. The scope of this book is the application of fundamental ethical principles to issues around human life; thus, it gives a moral assessment of various types of behaviour. As the topics enlighten issues on life, student nurses are hoped to grow in their appreciation of life, one¿s own life and the life of others. This book has three parts: Part I ¿Life¿ (Chapters 1-2) is philosophical in argumentation (anthropology), Part II ¿Caring for Life¿ (Chapters 3-9) is mainly about health care ethics, and Part III ¿Transmission of Human Life¿ (Chapters 10-14) deals mostly with the virtue of chastity.
