RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 What is it to do good ethics? JF Journal of Medical Ethics JO J Med Ethics FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd and Institute of Medical Ethics SP 68 OP 70 DO 10.1136/medethics-2014-102384 VO 41 IS 1 A1 Daniel Callahan YR 2015 UL http://jme.bmj.com/content/41/1/68.abstract AB Much of my work in bioethics over the years has been throwing off ethics as pursued in the analytical tradition. I believe the field should steer clear of the rigid style of hyper-rationalist ethics and a reduction of ethics to a search for rules and principles. It should be open to a full range of influence, in style and substance, of literature, history and the social sciences. It should take in the full range of human life, individual and social.
