Over the last several decades, bioethicists have championed a bewildering variety        of methods for understanding and resolving difficult ethical problems in medicine,        including: principlism, wide reflective equilibrium, casuistry, feminism, virtue        theory, narrative, and others. Much of this advocacy overlooks the limitations of        the favored method, and also neglects the strengths found in alternative        approaches.Tom Tomlinson systematically uncovers and evaluates both the strengths        and limits of a variety of ethical tools, and in so doing develops a comprehensive        appreciation of the roles that various methods can play in deepening our        understanding of ethical problems in medicine, and in supporting well-grounded        judgments about what to do. He critically evaluates each method to identify both        limits and advantages, which he then illustrates through discussion of specific        cases and controversies. Tomlinson not only demonstrates that there is no single        method adequate to the task, but tries to develop an informed eclecticism that knows        how to pick the right tool for the right job. All those engaged in thinking about        bioethical theories will find Tomlinson's work important reading.
