Dr. Ruth Groenhout

September 28, 2018 by Ruth Groenhout
department: Philosophy

Distinguished Professor of Health Ethics
Department of Philosophy

My primary areas of research in healthcare ethics focus on gender, health systems and organizations, and health policy. [read more=’Read more’ less=’Read less’] I have a book coming out in 2019 that uses an ethics of care as a framework for analyzing policy and systems in health care. Other books include Connected Lives: Human Nature and an Ethics of Care, Transforming Care, Bioethics: A Reformed Look at Life and Death Choices, and Philosophy, Feminism, Faith. Recent articles include “Beauvoir and the Biological Body” in the Blackwell Companion to Simone de Beauvoir, “Of Medicine and Monsters: Rationing and an Ethics of Care” in Care Ethics and Political Theory and “Virtue and a Feminist Ethics of Care” in Virtues and Their Vices.[/read]
