525 kr

Skickas

I uppdraget som psykolog och psykoterapeut måste både etiska principer och rättsliga normer beaktas. Etiken och juridiken samspelar nära och det är därför klokt att studera dem tillsammans. Det är precis det som görs i Etik och juridik. Sedan första utgåvan 2007 har boken kommit att bli grundläggande kurslitteratur på många utbildningar. I denna nionde revidering har den genomgått en omfattande omarbetning och fått en ny struktur. Den består nu av fyra delar: Etiken, Juridiken, Etik och juridik samt Forskning och ansvar. Boken innehåller också helt nya kapitel och avsnitt om de etiska normerna. Två nya medverkande, en leg. psykolog och en leg. psykoterapeut, ger boken ytterligare tyngd och en än tydligare spegling av de etiska och juridiska frågor och dilemman som påverkar psykologer och psykoterapeuter i deras dagliga arbete.Etik och juridik för psykologer och psykoterapeuter vänder sig främst till studerande på psykolog- och psykoterapeututbildningar, men även till yrkesverksamma psykologer och psykoterapeuter.

Principles of Biomedical Ethics

AvTom L. Beauchamp,James F. Childress

Häftad, Engelska, 2008

749 kr

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Building on the best-selling tradition of previous editions, Principles of Biomedical Ethics, Sixth Edition, provides a highly original, practical, and insightful guide to morality in the health professions. Acclaimed authors Tom L. Beauchamp and James F. Childress thoroughly develop and advocate for four principles that lie at the core of moral reasoning in health care: respect for autonomy, nonmaleficence, beneficence, and justice. Drawing from contemporary research - and integrating detailed case studies and vivid real-life examples and scenarios - they demonstrate how these prima facie principles can be expanded to apply to various conflicts and dilemmas, from how to deliver bad news to whether or not to withhold or withdraw life-sustaining treatments. Illuminating both theory and method throughout, Principles of Biomedical Ethics, Sixth Edition, considers what constitutes moral character and addresses the problem of moral status: what rights are due to people and animals, and when.It also examines the professional-patient relationship, surveys major philosophical theories - including utilitarianism, Kantianism, rights theory, and Communitarianism - and describes methods of moral justification in bioethics. Ideal for courses in biomedical ethics, bioethics, and health care ethics, the text is enhanced by hundreds of annotated citations and a substantial introduction that clarifies key terms and concepts.

Psykologer hamnar ofta i etiska dilemman och situationer där de ställs inför svåra beslut utan någon självklar lösning.

Därför behöver den professionella yrkesetiken finnas med, hela tiden, hela dagen!Etik för psykologer beskriver kortfattat psykologyrket som profession, dess yrkesetik och jurisdiktion samt de yrkesetiska principer som finns formulerade för psykologer i Norden. Därefter följer kapitel om psykologers yrkesroll och praktiska arbetsliv med avstamp i olika arbetsplatser, uppdrag, utmaningar, dilemman – och möjligheter!I boken synliggörs etiska dilemman i exempelvis arbetet med små barn, rättspsykiatri, primärvård, elevhälsa och i arbetet med äldre personer. Återkoppling sker kontinuerligt till de yrkesetiska principerna.Etik för psykologer riktar sig till psykologstuderande och yrkesverksamma psykologer.

423 kr

Skickas

Etik i psykiatrisk vård integrerar relevanta etiska teorier och principer med aktuell empirisk forskning och med lagar som är relevanta för psykiatrisk vård. Författarna beskriver olika modeller för systematisk etisk reflektion och ger exempel på hur etiska utmaningar kan hanteras samt hur etikarbetet kan organiseras. Boken belyser vanligt förekommande etiska utmaningar som kan uppstå i den kliniska verksamheten genom konkreta fallbeskrivningar, till exempel kring autonomi, tystnadsplikt, kränkningar, tvång, prioriteringar och samarbete med anhöriga.Det har fram till nu saknats en svensk läro- eller fackbok i etik med särskilt fokus på psykiatrisk vård, trots att psykiska sjukdomar är en viktig del i både grundutbildningar och vidareutbildningar av vårdpersonal vid högskolor och universitet. I den här boken har ämnet angripits tvärvetenskapligt. De olika författarna har bakgrund inom medicin/psykiatri, omvårdnad, psykologi, sociologi, socialt arbete, juridik, etik och filosofi.Boken riktar sig till studenter, hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal och andra intresserade som vill sätta sig in i komplexa och kontroversiella etiska dilemman i den psykiatriska vården.

Fuskarna: Om Macchiarini och andras svek mot vetenskapen

AvKjell Asplund

Inbunden, Svenska, 2021

229 kr

Skickas

“Efter att vi gjort ett stort antal intervjuer, läst in oss på patientjournalerna och plöjt igenom den vetenskapliga litteraturen, var vi mogna att möta huvudpersonen själv. I maj 2016 träffade vi Paolo Macchiarini i ett sammanträdesrum en trappa upp vid korsningen av Hantverkargatan och Scheelegatan på Kungsholmen.”

Kjell Asplund skildrar ett dussintal av vår tids mest flagranta bedragare inom läkarvetenskapen, bland dem kirurgen Paolo Macchiarini, psykologen Diederik Stapel och entreprenören Elizabeth Holmes. Han visar på svårigheterna att tidigt känna igen fusk, hur fuskarens förslagenhet ofta är förknippad med en karismatisk personlighet, tränger in i fuskets drivkrafter och lyfter fram visselblåsarnas och fuskjägarnas avgörande kurage.

Fuskarna är skriven från vetenskapens innersta rum. Personlig och erfarenhetsbaserad, oupphörligt förbluffande och spännande, en läkarens och ämbetsmannens egen true crime. Dess viktigaste fråga är: Hur kan vi skydda forskningen från bedragare och bevara allmänhetens tilltro till läkarvetenskapen?

Care in Practice

On Tinkering in Clinics, Homes and Farms

AvAnnemarie Mol,Ingunn Moserm. fl.

Häftad, Engelska, 2010

274 kr

Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar

In what way is »care« a matter of »tinkering«? Rather than presenting care as a (preferably »warm«) relation between human beings, the various contributions to the volume give the material world (usually cast as »cold«) a prominent place in their analysis. Thus, this book does not continue to oppose care and technology, but contributes to rethinking both in such a way that they can be analysed together.Technology is not cast as a functional tool, easy to control – it is shifting, changing, surprising and adaptable. In care practices all »things« are (and have to be) tinkered with persistently. Knowledge is fluid, too. Rather than a set of general rules, the knowledges (in the plural) relevant to care practices are as adaptable and in need of adaptation as the technologies, the bodies, the people, and the daily lives involved.

Seminar of Jacques Lacan

The Ethics of Psychoanalysis

AvJacques Lacan,Jacques-Alain Miller

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Lacan dedicates this seventh year of his famous seminar to the problematic role of ethics in psychoanalysis. Delving into the psychoanalyst's inevitable involvement with ethical questions and "the attraction of transgression," Lacan illuminates Freud's psychoanalytic work and its continued influence. Lacan explores the problem of sublimation, the paradox of jouissance, the essence of tragedy (a reading of Sophocle's Antigone), and the tragic dimension of analytic experience. His exploration leads us to startling insights on "the consequence of man's relationship to desire" and the conflicting judgments of ethics and analysis.

The Psychoses

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Taking us into and beyond the realm of Freudian psychoanalysis, Lacan examines the psychoses' inescapable connection to the symbolic process through which signifier is joined with signified. Lacan deftly navigates the ontological levels of the symbolic, the imaginary, and the real to explain psychosis as "foreclosure," or rejection of the primordial signifier. Then, bridging the gap between the theoretical and the practical, Lacan discusses the implications for treatment. In these lectures on the psychoses, Lacan's renowned theory of metaphor and metonymy, along with the concept of the "quilting point," appears for the first time.

The Human Kind is a compelling account of some of the hardest cases in one doctor’s career.Everyone gets to be a patient sooner or later. Almost everyone has some experience of being misunderstood by doctors; encounters with difficult doctors; of relationships burdened with mutual bafflement, hostility and pain.Every doctor is haunted by memories of difficult relationships with patients, of the decisions made, and the outcomes that followed. People whom, despite all of their patience, persistence, the best communication, diagnostic and reasoning skills, they haven’t helped. People for whose unique suffering it seems medicine has nothing to offer.Dr. Peter Dorward explores the many ethical dilemmas that GPs must face every day, to explain why it is that despite vast resources, time, skill and dedication, medicine is so often destined to fail. His recollections include his worst failures and biggest challenges, ranging from the everyday, the tragic, the grotesque, the villainous and the humorous.The Human Kind presents a fresh understanding of the difficult relationship between doctor and patient, and the challenges which both must face.

A Columbia University physician comes across a popular medievaltext on dying well written after the horror of the Black Plague and discoversancient wisdom for rethinking death and gaining insight today on how we canlearn the lost art of dying well in this wise, clear-eyed book that is ascompelling and soulful as Being Mortal, When Breath BecomesAir, and Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.As a specialist in both medical ethics and the treatment of older patients, Dr.L. S. Dugdale knows a great deal about the end of life. Far too many of us diepoorly, she argues. Our culture has overly medicalized death: dying is ofteninstitutional and sterile, prolonged by unnecessary resuscitations and otherintrusive interventions. We are not going gently into that good night—ourreliance on modern medicine can actually prolong suffering and strip us of ourdignity. Yet our lives do not have to end this way.Centuriesago, in the wake of the Black Plague, a text was published offering advice tohelp the living prepare for a good death. Written during the late Middle Ages, arsmoriendi—The Art of Dying—madeclear that to die well, one first had to live well and described what practicesbest help us prepare. When Dugdale discovered this Medieval book, it was arevelation. Inspired by its holistic approach to the final stage we must allone day face, she draws from this forgotten work, combining its wisdom with theknowledge she has gleaned from her long medical career. The Lost Art of Dying is atwenty-first century ars moriendi, filled with much-needed insight andthoughtful guidance that will change our perceptions. By recovering our senseof finitude, confronting our fears, accepting how our bodies age, developingmeaningful rituals, and involving our communities in end-of-life care, we candiscover what it means to both live and die well. And like the original arsmoriendi, The Lost Art of Dying includes nine black-and-white drawingsfrom artist Michael W. Dugger. Dr.Dugdale offers a hopeful perspective on death and dying as she shows us how toadapt the wisdom from the past to our lives today. The Lost Art of Dying is a vital, affectingbook that reconsiders death, death culture, and how we can transform how welive each day, including our last.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

The issue of medical ethics, from thorny moral questions such as euthanasia and the morality of killing to political questions such as the fair distribution of health care resources, is rarely out of today's media. This area of ethics covers a wide range of issues, from mental health to reproductive medicine, as well as including management issues such as resource allocation, and has proven to hold enduring interest for the general public as well as the medical practitioner. This Very Short Introduction provides an invaluable tool with which to think about the ethical values that lie at the heart of medicine. This new edition explores the ethical reasoning we can use to approach medical ethics, introducing the most important 'tools' of ethical reasoning, and discussing how argument, thought experiments, and intuition can be combined in the consideration of medical ethics. Considering its practical application, Tony Hope and Michael Dunn explore how medical ethics supports health professionals through the growing use of ethics expertise in clinical settings. They also contemplate the increasingly important place of medical ethics in the wider social context, particularly in this age of globalization, not only in healthcare practice, but also policy, discussions in the media, pressure group and activism settings, and in legal judgments.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

From 1932 to 1972, the United States Public Health Service conducted a non-therapeutic experiment involving over 400 black male sharecroppers infected with syphilis. The Tuskegee Study had nothing to do with treatment. It purpose was to trace the spontaneous evolution of the disease in order to learn how syphilis affected black subjects. The men were not told they had syphilis; they were not warned about what the disease might do to them; and, with the exception of a smattering of medication during the first few months, they were not given health care. Instead of the powerful drugs they required, they were given aspirin for their aches and pains. Health officials systematically deceived the men into believing they were patients in a government study of "bad blood", a catch-all phrase black sharecroppers used to describe a host of illnesses. At the end of this 40 year deathwatch, more than 100 men had died from syphilis or related complications. "Bad Blood" provides compelling answers to the question of how such a tragedy could have been allowed to occur.Tracing the evolution of medical ethics and the nature of decision making in bureaucracies, Jones attempted to show that the Tuskegee Study was not, in fact, an aberration, but a logical outgrowth of race relations and medical practice in the United States. Now, in this revised edition of "Bad Blood", Jones traces the tragic consequences of the Tuskegee Study over the last decade. A new introduction explains why the Tuskegee Study has become a symbol of black oppression and a metaphor for medical neglect, inspiring a prize-winning play, a Nova special, and a motion picture. A new concluding chapter shows how the black community's wide-spread anger and distrust caused by the Tuskegee Study has hampered efforts by health officials to combat AIDS in the black community. "Bad Blood" was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize and was one of the "N.Y. Times" 12 best books of the year.

Research increasingly suggests that addiction has a genetic and neurobiological basis, but efforts to translate research into effective clinical treatments and social policy needs to be informed by careful ethical analyses of the personal and social implications. Scientists and policy makers alike must consider possible unintended negative consequences of neuroscience research so that the promise of reducing the burden and incidence of addiction can be fully realized and new advances translated into clinically meaningful and effective treatments.

This volume brings together leading addiction researchers and practitioners with neuroethicists and social scientists to specifically discuss the ethical, philosophical, legal and social implications of neuroscience research of addiction, as well as its translation into effective, economical and appropriate policy and treatments. Chapters explore the history of ideas about addiction, the neuroscience of drug use and addiction, prevention and treatment of addiction, the moral implications of addiction neuroscience, legal issues and human rights, research ethics, and public policy.

Features outstanding and truly international scholarship, with chapters written by leading experts in neuroscience, addiction medicine, psychology and more Informs psychologists of related research in neuroscience and vice versa, giving researchers easy one-stop access to knowledge outside their area of specialty
