Biomedical Ethics Reviews * 1987 is the fifth volume in a series of
texts designed to review and update the literature on issues of
central importance in bioethics today. Three topics are discussed
in the present volume: (1) Prescribing Drugs for the Aged and
Dying; (2) Animals as a Source of Human Transplant Organs, and (3)
The Nurse's Role: Rights and Responsibilities. Each topic
constitutes a separate sec tion in our text; introductory essays
briefly summarize the contents of each section. Bioethics is, by
its nature, interdisciplinary in character. Recognizing this fact,
the authors represented in the present volume have made every
effort to minimize the use of techni cal jargon. At the same time,
we believe the purpose of pro viding a review of the recent
literature, as well as of advancing bioethical discussion, is
admirably served by the pieces col lected herein. We look forward
to the next volume in our series, and very much hope the reader
will also.
