Content:
Ask your doctor, pharmacist - or the clinical ethics committee in your area about risks and side effects. «The establishment of clinical ethics committees is a direct reaction to the professionalization of medical operations and the successes in medical technology. Progress in medicine has always meant more than just technical progress. Precisely its undeniable success poses new questions and problems for doctors, nurses, pastors and the management. With the institutionalization of clinical ethics advice, there is the expectation of placing the complex communication processes on a common basis. What are ethics committees doing in hospitals? How does ethics become a topic there? And how do theologians and nurses communicate in these bodies? From a theological and philosophical point of view, the contributions in this volume summarize key research results that were discussed as part of the DFG-funded research project »Ethics and Organization«.
