Abstract
- Graham McLean's book, "Ethical basics for the caring professions," offers a comprehensive and practical guide to ethics for healthcare and social care professionals. McLean emphasizes the importance of common moral sense and ethical reflection in these professions, rather than delving into complex ethical theories. The book covers topics such as logical tools, moral relativism, philosophical theories, the four principles of ethics, euthanasia, and disability. While the book is highly recommended for its depth and quality, some readers may find it lengthy and repetitive. Overall, it provides a valuable resource for practitioners seeking to enhance their ethical understanding and decision-making skills. [Extracted from the article]
