The growing globalization of medical research and the
application of new biotechnologies in morally contested areas has
forced a revision of international ethical guidelines.
This book examines the controversies surrounding biomedical
research in the twenty-first century from a human rights
perspective, analyzing the evolution and changes in form and
content of international instruments regulating the conduct of
biomedical research.
The approach adopted is comparative and includes an evaluation
of human rights and UK and US law on embryonic stem cell research,
the HIV/AIDS trials in the developing world, the Alder Hey Inquiry
and the human radiation and nerve gas experiments on human subjects
in the US and the UK. This is the first book to analyze some of the
major issues in biomedical research today from an international,
comparative human rights perspective.
