"The book is separated into four distinct parts. The second section
on Virtue, Caring and Feminist ethics is thorough, well written and
orientated towards a nursing interpretation. Each of the chapters
in this section remains pragmatic in application to clinical
practice.
Although primarily written for teachers and students of healthcare
ethics, this book deserves a wider readership because it helps
develop the agendas in nursing ethics."
