Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy

Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy



Author: Carolyn McLeod
Edition: 1
Publisher: The MIT Press
Binding: Hardcover
ISBN: 026213408X



Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy (Basic Bioethics)


The power of new medical technologies, the cultural authority of physicians, and the gendered power dynamics of many patient-physician relationships can all inhibit women's reproductive freedom. Medical books Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy . Often these factors interfere with women's ability to trust themselves to choose and act in ways that are consistent with their own goals and values. In this book Carolyn McLeod introduces to the reproductive ethics literature the idea that in reproductive health care women's self-trust can be undermined in ways that threaten their autonomy. Understanding the importance of self-trust for autonomy, McLeod argues, is crucial to understanding the limits on women's reproductive freedom.

McLeod brings feminist insights in philosophical moral psychology to reproductive ethics, and to health-care ethics more broadly Medical books Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy, 9780262134088. Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy, ISBN-13: 9780262134088, ISBN-10: 026213408X

Medical Book Self-Trust and Reproductive Autonomy



Often these factors interfere with women's ability to trust themselves to choose and act in ways that are consistent with their own goals and values. In this book Carolyn McLeod introduces to the reproductive ethics literature the idea that in reproductive health care women's self-trust can be undermined in ways that threaten their autonomy. Understanding the importance of self-trust for autonomy, McLeod argues, is crucial to understanding the limits on women's reproductive freedom.

McLeod brings feminist insights in philosophical moral psychology to reproductive ethics, and to health-care ethics more broadly. She identifies the social environments in which self-trust is formed and encouraged. She also shows how women's experiences of reproductive health care can enrich our understanding of self-trust and autonomy as philosophical concepts. The book's theoretical components are grounded in women's concrete experiences. The cases discussed, which involve miscarriage, infertility treatment, and prenatal diagnosis, show that what many women feel toward themselves in reproductive contexts is analogous to what we feel toward others when we trust or distrust them.

McLeod also discusses what health-care providers can do to minimize the barriers to women's self-trust in reproductive health care, and why they have a duty to do so as part of their larger duty to respect patient autonomy.

The Practice of Autonomy

The Practice of Autonomy



Author: Carl E. Schneider
Edition: 1
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
Binding: Hardcover
ISBN: 0195113977



The Practice of Autonomy: Patients, Doctors, and Medical Decisions


This is a book written across the grain of contemporary ethics, where the principle of autonomy has triumphed. Medical books The Practice of Autonomy. t is an attempt to see the law of medicine, the principles of bioethics, and the encounter between doctor and patient from the patient's point of view. While Schneider agrees that many patients now want to make their own medical decisions, and virtually all want to be treated with dignity and solicitude, he argues that most do not want to assume the full burden of decision-making that some bioethicists and lawyers have thrust upon them. What patients want, according to Schneider, is more ambiguous, complicated, and ambivalent than being "empowered." In this book he tries to chart that ambiguity, to take the autonomy paradigm past current pieties into the uncertain realities of modern medicine Medical books The Practice Of Autonomy: Patients, Doctors, And Medical Decisions.

Medical Book Autonomy and Clinical Medicine



It is thoroughly interdisciplinary in its examination of the difficulties of honoring the patient's and the physician's autonomy, especially in light of the changes in health care worldwide today. Although autonomy has become the primary standard of bioethics, little has been done to link it to the ways people actually behave, nor to its roots in the healing relationship. Combining as it does the disciplines of psychology and philosophy, this book is a step in that direction.
