Summary

From the summer 2003 Dreamcatchers Conference, Creighton University's Leadership in Ethics Education , the authors have assembled a veritable who's who of PT and OT academics to share their insights on contemporary issues in health and rehabilitation ethics. Going beyond the nuts and bolts of teaching ethics, they present pedagogical strategies to change how educators think and, consequently, how they teach ethics to the next generation of health professionals.
