A nurse/philosopher develops an account of what moral principles are sound, how we apply them to complex situations, and what makes it reasonable to treat individuals in accordance with particular moral principles. She discusses animals rights, obligations to future generations, abortion, limiting medical treatment, and euthanasia, showing how general principles can generate answers to specific dilemmas. Contains summaries of theoretical conclusions so that nonprofessionals can follow the discussion of practical issues. Of interest to philosophers, and those concerned with problems in medical and environmental ethics, abortion, and animal rights. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)Book Details
