Abstract
Dr. Mohrmann explains the derivations and multiple meanings of "integrity" while discussing the "paradox" of integrity: that it implies consistency but is always being reshaped. She uses stories from her experience as a pediatrician to demonstrate some of the challenges to personal integrity that can arise in practice.
