In this chapter I first analyze the concept of trust
using research from nursing and medicine and I stipulate a
definition of trust to be used in this research. I then
describe and examine Baier's development of a theory of trust
in the following six sections:
a] Background: The Moral Insights of Men and Women;
b] Baier's Central Moral and Political Questions;
c] The Justification of Trust;
d] Learning How to Trust;
e] Learning Whom to Trust;
