This collection of essays addresses an important cross-section of
issues in contemporary bioethics. It represents an essential
contribution to global bioethics anchored and grounded on a
continent most remarkable for its biological, cultural and
linguistic diversity. It is a fitting beginning to addressing the
observable absence of African voices in the rather lively global
discourses of bioethics. The issues treated here include a
discussion of the fundamental principles of bioethics; the place of
African thought in medical research ethics, traditional medicine,
and assisted conception; the moral status of embryonic stem cells;
research with vulnerable human beings; and sexual and reproductive
health in Africa. It explores a paradigm of how the universal and
the particular may be blended, how global bioethics can remain
firmly anchored and committed locally, regionally, continentally.
