"Risk and Luck in Medical Ethics examines the 'moral luck' paradox in greater detail, relating it to Kantian, consequentialist, and virtue based approaches to ethics. This revised edition applies the paradoxes of risk and luck to medical ethics, including timely discussion of risk and luck in the allocation of scarce health care resources, informed consent to treatment, decisions about withholding life sustaining treatment, psychiatry, reproductive ethics, genetic resting, and medical research and evidence based medicine."--BOOK JACKET.
