Book Synopsis Medical Ethics, Ordinary Concepts and Ordinary Lives by : Christopher Cowley
Book excerpt: Mainstream discussions of ethics often search for a problem-solving theory or explore ontological status. This book argues instead that the proper starting point should be the words and deeds of ordinary people in ordinary disagreements - the ethical concepts in play can only derive full meaning within the context of ordinary human lives.
