  • Drugs To Patients Without Their Knowledge
    661 words
    What Is the Price Knowledge I feel there is a definite need for knowledge in today's society, but there is also a definite point when it has gone too far. It has gone too far by conducting experiments on people without letting them know the consequences and side effects that will place upon them. It has also reached an extreme when the person becomes physically or mentally impaired after the experiments. I see this treatment as both immoral and unethical; there is no reason to harm a normally he...

It can also be preformed in ways that will not be of any conceivable benefit to th...

    492 words
    "The only thing constant in this world is change". It seems that every powerful and articulate phrase can hold some personal meaning to your life. Whether this phrase helps strengthen you, discourage or encourage you to influence others, it is the underlying moral which helps you to realize what you were really meant to do with your life.

  • Lab And Volunteer Experiences
    647 words
    On the first day that I walked into the Church Nursing Home, I was unsure of what to expect. A jumble of questions ran through my mind simultaneously: Is this the right job for me? Will I be capable of aiding the elderly residents? Will I enjoy what I do? A couple of hours later, these questions were largely forgotten as I slowly cut chicken pieces and fed them to Frau Meyer. Soon afterwards, I was strolling through the garden with Herr Schmidt, listening to him tell of his tour of duty in World...
  • Personality And Experience Of The Researcher
    437 words
    In qualitative inquiry, where the researcher is an integral part of the research process, it is important to reflect on the impact of the researcher on the research setting and the research process (see Edwards 1993, quoted in Ellemor, 1998).

The research was conducted by an outside researcher rather than being driven...
