Excelsior Bioethics: Philosophical issues

[conbrochill]

Has anyone taken the Excelsior Bioethics: Philosophical issues, if so what did you use to study. I am having a hard time finding studying material for this one, in addition to this there are no practice tests for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't taken the test yet

but I'm using this to prepare

Teach Yourself Ethics by Mel Thompson
the book is small and short, but I feel it's giving me all I need

the book is easy enough to read, its just not as interesting to read as I though it would be

the case studies are super interesting, but the history of ethics and different definitions of morals are just so boring

there is a newer version

but I haven't seen it yet

You might try Morality and Morale Controversies by Arthur or Ethics in Healthcare Management by Darr. These are two popular texts for this subject area. You might be able to find these at a local college library so you won't have to purchase them. I also recommend used copies from Amazon or Ebay sellers. The other option is to rent them from a textbook rental source such as Chegg. I can also recommend the EC Ethics: Theory and Practice exam if you can sub it for the bioethics exam. It does have a practice exam which is very helpful using the same scenarios as the actual exam. Good luck!
