Abstract
Ethics in healthcare was originally published in 1996 under the title "Ethics in nursing practice". The current third edition is an extensively revised impression. In contrast to many texts in its class, the third edition of "Ethics in healthcare" not only explicates theoretical concepts, ethical theory and ethical decision-making (moral education); it also provides a firm foundation for making these relevant by positing a model of the individual as an ethical / moral and caring agent. In addition, this edition of "Ethics in healthcare", in support of the model of the individual it proposes, reintroduces virtue ethics (character education), the teaching of ethics and the ethics of teaching
