Is membership of our species important in itself, or is it just
important to have the properties that a normal grown-up human being
has? A value subjectivist may argue for a special human value
proceeding from the assumption that most of us believe or sense
that being human is something important per se and independently
of, for instance, those properties that form the basis of
personhood. This allows all human beings to have a share in this
value. Other attempts to defend a principle of human dignity fail
in this respect and are criticized in this book. The book is
intended for philosophers with a general interest in moral
philosophy or ethics, and more specifically axiological, animal and
medical ethics.
