Nursing Ethics Across the Curriculum and Into Practice 6th Edition

Nursing Ethics: Across the Curriculum and Into Practice

Title: Nursing Ethics: Across the Curriculum and Into Practice Edition: Sixth Edition Authors: Janie B. Butts and Karen L. Rich Publisher: Jones & Bartlett Learning

Cover Design: A deep forest green header band at the top carries the authors' names in clean white serif type. "NURSING" and "ETHICS" appear in massive, bold dark olive-green display type stacked across two lines, with the subtitle "Across the Curriculum and Into Practice" in elegant dark italic below. A black and white footer bar at the bottom reads "SIXTH EDITION" in white, alongside a Navigate Premier Access badge with access code notice in the lower left corner.

Cover Photography: A serene, misty photograph of a tranquil river or stream landscape, with moss-covered rocks dotting the gently flowing water and soft fog blurring the background into atmospheric greens and grays. In the foreground, a carefully balanced cairn of stacked stones rises vertically along the left edge of the cover — each stone a different size and shape, precariously yet harmoniously balanced atop one another. The stacked stones serve as a powerful visual metaphor for ethical balance, careful deliberation, and the layered, weighted considerations inherent in ethical nursing practice.

About the Book: A leading nursing ethics textbook designed to integrate ethical reasoning throughout the nursing curriculum and into clinical practice, covering foundational ethical theories, professional codes of ethics, and contemporary bioethical issues facing nurses. Now in its sixth edition, it remains a cornerstone resource for ethics education in nursing programs.

Audience: Undergraduate and graduate nursing students, nursing faculty, and practicing nurses seeking a deeper grounding in ethical practice.
