Description

Explore the deep connection between ethics and healthcare with Virtue and Medicine: Explorations in the Character of Medicine. Part of the Philosophy and Medicine series (Volume 17), this work addresses the growing interest in virtue theories and their role in moral life. For decades, thinkers like Nicolai Hartmann, G. E. M. Anscombe, and G. H. von Wright have pointed out that virtue is a neglected topic in modern ethics. This book responds to that call by examining how the notion of virtue contributes to moral reasoning, moral character, and moral judgment within the medical field. Through the perspectives of notable contributors such as Arthur Dyck, P. T. Geach, Josef Pieper, David Hamed, and Stanley Hauerwas, this text provides a serious look at how character shapes medical practice. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of philosophy and the medical profession.
