Reproductive science continues to revolutionise reproduction and
propel us further into uncharted territories. The revolution
signalled by the birth of Louise Brown after IVF in 1978, prompted
governments across Europe and beyond into regulatory action. Forty
years on, there are now dramatic and controversial developments in
new reproductive technologies. Technologies such as uterus
transplantation that may enable unisex gestation and babies
gestated by dad; or artificial wombs that will completely divorce
reproduction from the human body and allow babies to be gestated by
machines, usher in a different set of legal, ethical and social
questions to those that arose from IVF. This book revisits the
regulation of assisted reproduction and advances the debate on from
the now much-discussed issues that arose from IVF, offering a
critical analysis of the regulatory challenges raised by new
reproductive technologies on the horizon.
You face an overtly confident subject of a fraud investigation
across the interview table and you think to yourself: Why is he so
confident? Is it that obvious that I don't know how to prove his
guilt? There is no space left on your CV for another academic
qualification and you've been doing this for a while now - why then
do you feel so ill-prepared? You start to wish that you had the
effortless guidance of your retired colleague. If he was here now,
what gems of experience and tricks of the trade would he give you?
Practical Insights for Fraud Professionals aims to do exactly that.
It reads like on-the-job training and provides sound practical
guidelines on how to conduct all elements associated with fraud
investigation. Both new and seasoned fraud investigators will find
value in these applied techniques.
This volume includes six varied contributions to the study of
visual ethics in organizations. The implications of our visual
world for organizational life and personal behaviour have received
scant research attention. This volume sets out to address that lack
of research. It includes contributions on empirical studies, film,
personal portraits, social research using the photovoice method,
bureaucracy and critical theory. Contributors show how the
application of disciplines developed for the study of films can
help us to understand how organizations are perceived, and how
visual images can be used in empirical research about
organizations, ethics and organizational citizenship behaviour.
Some say philosophy has abandoned art, some that humans lack moral
vision. A number of contributors show how a careful and informed
study of art can enhance our understanding of organizational life.
This volume seeks to put the visual back into ethics and
organizations.
