This updated edition addresses a variety of ethical issues that arise in the care of oncology patients. Many volumes have been written on medical ethics in the past 30 years. However, few have focused on ethical issues specific to cancer care. This book brings together such a focused examination. The contributors include clinicians, ethicists, medical humanists and medical educators. The issues raised have direct relevance to the care of oncology patients in treatment, as well as research settings. The chapters address issues that are central to contemporary medical practice and medical ethics inquiry.
“Ethical Issues in Cancer Patient Care, Second Edition” will have direct importance for clinicians, nurses, and others caring for cancer patients. In addition, medical students, medical educators and ethicists will find this book of interest.
