About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The author presents a sociocultural perspective of medical ethics education, the characteristic feature of which is to consider medical ethics as an aspect of medical education. … The book is written primarily for those involved in medical ethics education, especially at the undergraduate level. … the subjects it covers also may be interesting to medical students, medical educators, and teachers and educators in general.” (Shahram Ahmadi Nasab Emran, Doody’s Book Reviews, February, 2014)
“It serves as an overview of the theoretical perspectives one might use to study what medical ethics education is. … For those of us interested in aligning medical ethics education with the needs and interests of the patients this book is a useful guide to the theories and challenges ahead.” (Jonathon Tomlinson, somatosphere.net, February, 2014)
