This book is an interdisciplinary contribution to bioethics,
bringing together philosophers, sociologists and Science and
Technology Studies researchers as a way of bridging the
disciplinary divides that have opened up in the study of bioethics.
Each discipline approaches the topic through its own lens providing
either normative statements or empirical studies, and the distance
between the disciplines is heightened not only by differences in
approach, but also disagreements over the values, interpretations
and problematics within bioethical research. In order to converse
across these divides, this volume includes contributions from
several disciplines. The volume examines the sociological issues
faced by interdisciplinary research in bioethics, the role of
expertise, moral generalisations, distributed agency, and the
importance of examining what is not being talked about. Other
contributions try to take an interdisciplinary look at a range of
specific situations, fetal alcohol syndrome in the media, citizen
science, electronic cigarettes and bioethical issues in human
geography.
