Description: This book draws on medical sociology, complexity science, and political philosophy to describe how complex health care systems contribute to common ethical challenges and create pressure on health care professionals and other staff to improvise remedies to compensate for flawed structures or policies. It presents frameworks for looking at these challenges as problems of safety and harm and offers recommendations for integrating ethics, safety, and justice in practice.
