This book proposes a 'strong' (action-guiding) account of a virtue-based approach to moral decision-making within contemporary nursing practice. Merits and criticisms of obligation and virtue-based approaches to morality are explored. The author argues that in order to deliver morally good care, it is necessary to examine one's moral character.
ALAN E. ARMSTRONG is Senior Lecturer in Nursing at the University of Central Lancashire, Preston, UK.
