The physician as moral arbiter

Samuel Gorovitz

pp. 23-31

Résumé

When asked to comment about the physician as moral arbiter, I thought it useful to begin by considering just what a moral arbiter would be. To speak of someone as a moral arbiter, or to speak of some group as functioning in that role, is to say that there is arbitration and that it concerns moral matters.
