Medical Ethics: A Critical Thinking Approach Towards the Moral Horizons in Health Care invites students to delve into significant moral concerns intertwined with medical practice. The book represents a synthesis of ethical theory, metaethics, moral epistemology, metaphysics, existentialism, and Buddhism, all of which funnel through a lens of logic and critical reasoning to construct a framework for evaluating multifaceted arguments that shape considered moral judgments. The book discusses a broad array of subjects including the ethics of medical experimentation, the complexities of patient autonomy, informed consent, the moral intricacies surrounding abortion, assisted reproductive technologies, and end-of-life choices. It underscores the importance of logic and critical thinking in shaping moral decisions and constructing our moral imagination. Combining theoretical insights with practical case studies, the book serves as a comprehensive guide for those seeking to navigate the ethical landscape of health care, enhancing a student's intellectual breadth while fostering critical and practical engagement with real-world health care dilemmas. Recommended for courses in health care ethics, bioethics, and applied philosophy, Medical Ethics cultivates not only an understanding of different ethical theories and philosophical perspectives but also intellectual humility and respect for divergent moral views.
