Summary | "Moral Principles and Medical Practice: The Basis of Medical Jurisprudence" by Rev. Charles Coppens, S.J. is a scholarly examination of the ethical foundations of medical practice, written in the late 19th century. This work seeks to address the moral principles that underpin medical jurisprudence, focusing particularly on the responsibilities of physicians and the ethical dilemmas they may face in their practice. The book emphasizes the importance of ethical considerations in the medical profession, aiming to train future medical practitioners to hold a high regard for moral integrity in their duties. The opening of the book introduces the author’s objectives and the significance of the medical field, noting its noble nature and the profound responsibilities that accompany the role of a physician. Coppens emphasizes the necessity for a proper understanding of the moral principles governing the practice, stating that medical professionals must aim to be benefactors to their patients while adhering to enduring ethical guidelines. He establishes the foundation for his subsequent lectures by asserting that human acts must be grounded in ethical reasoning and moral law, rather than merely legal standards. Thus, Coppens sets the stage for a deeper exploration of pertinent ethical issues such as craniotomy and abortion, questioning the implications of these practices within the medical and moral frameworks provided by both divine and natural laws.
