Recensioner i media

“This is a succinct overview of the purpose and method of ethics consultation in healthcare settings. … This book is intended specifically for individuals who provide ethics consultations in healthcare settings. … This is a welcome addition to current medical ethics consultation literature, as there is no single approach to consultations that is widely accepted in healthcare. … this book serves as a valuable introduction and overview of a team-based approach to ethics consultations.” (Kristen Senetar, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2017)
