Summary/Abstract: The present paper aims at presenting the main ideas of the book “Relatia medic -pacient” written as a result of a post-doctoral project in bioethics. The volume structured in 6 chapters exposes gradually themes such as ethical theories applied in patient -doctor relationship, models of those types of relationships, issue of trust and patient autonomy in the medical care context, medical decisions and communication in patient – doctor relationship. In the economy of a few lines, I will try to expose those aspects that made from this volume a readable, useful and comprehensive one, for both practitioners in medical system but also for persons who are interested by this domain.
