Book Description

Publication Date: March 25, 1999 | ISBN-10: 019262900X | ISBN-13: 978-0192629005 | Edition: 3

Consideration of ethics has established a prominent position in the affairs of psychiatrists. An increased professional commitment to accountability, in parallel with a growing "consumer" movement, has paved the way for a creative engagement with the ethical movement. This reference covers the many complex ethical dilemmas which face clinicians and researchers in their everyday practice. This new edition takes a look at recent trends and developments at the interface between ethics and psychiatric practice. For this third edition, Sydney Bloch and Paul Chodoff are joined by Stephen Green, a teacher in ethics and psychiatry at Georgetown University, Washington DC, in leading 29 scholars in the field from around the world. Since the second edition, the editors have observed several emerging aspects of psychiatric practice requiring coverage, as a result, six new chapters have been added covering ethical aspects of community psychiatry, managed care, psychiatric genetics, resource allocation, codes of ethics and boundary violations.
