The Routledge Handbook of Nursing Ethics provides a comprehensive overview of nursing ethics. The book analyses and critiques the field as it evolves in response to local and global challenges, from social inequalities through pandemics and demographic changes to issues relating to workforce development.The book opens with a section discussing historical and theoretical developments in nursing ethics, including chapters on Western, Indigenous, and cross-cultural perspectives. The book’s second section explores the dominant philosophical and empirical approaches to researching nursing ethics in the twenty-first century. The third section analyses some of the ethical problems encountered by nurses in contemporary practice, including moral distress, moral injury, compassion fatigue and ethical dilemmas. The fourth section draws on contemporary discussions regarding clinical ethics, ethics education and the contributions of nurses in responding to ethical challenges in care, and reviews the meaning and implications of terms such as ‘ethics support’, ‘ethical competence’, and ‘ethical resilience’. The fifth section investigates ethical issues arising in diverse care contexts, including care in the community, in residential care, in hospitals and hospices. The sixth section considers ethical aspects of nurses’ roles in caring for individuals across the lifespan and key issues that arise, from neonatal care to end of life. The final substantive section addresses policy, politics and advocacy in nursing ethics, discussing nurses’ engagement with relational, organisational, political and technological challenges. A final chapter reflects on the future opportunities and challenges in the field of nursing ethics.This comprehensive volume is an essential reference for scholars, students and practitioners from a range of disciplinary and professional backgrounds with an interest in ethics and healthcare.

Title first published in 2003. John Macquarrie has been a major contributor in the theological world for more than forty years, but as yet very little secondary material on his work has appeared. This book offers an insightful introduction to Macquarrie's theology, arguing that at its heart is a systematic theology of gift. Tracing the development of his thought from its early existentialism to the social and world-affirming perspectives of later writings, this book shows how these developments emerge in dialogue with contemporary thinkers. Morley demonstrates how Macquarrie's theology mediates between two traditionally opposing theologies of gift and being, centring on the doctrines of God and of human being, and reaching its fullest expression in Christology, with Christ as the focal point of two personal movements of self-giving - divine and human. Macquarrie himself contributes a Foreword.
