From the Back Cover

This book engages in the broader nursing ethics project of critiquing existing ethical frameworks as well as constructing and developing alternative understandings, methodologies, and approaches. It charts the development of feminist perspectives in the field of nursing ethics from the late 19th century to the present day and considers the impact of gender roles and gendered understandings on the moral lives of nurses, patients and families. All of the authors included in the book draw attention, in different ways, to the operations of power inherent in moral relationships at individual, organisational, cultural, and socio-political levels. The book's final chapters demonstrate how the application of feminist insights can deepen our understanding of the role of nurses and midwives in providing particular forms of care e.g. care in the home and abortion care.
