Doctors, Honour and the Law

- Medical Ethics in Imperial Germany

About Doctors, Honour and the Law

Medical ethics in Imperial Germany were entangled with professional, legal and social issues. This book shows how doctors' ethical decision-making was led by their notions of male honour, professional politics and a paternalistic doctor-patient relationship rather than concern for patients' interests or the right of the sick to self-determination.
