Renowned philosophers and medical ethicists debate and discuss the
profoundly important concepts of disease and health. Christopher
Boorse begins with an extensive reexamination of his seminal
definition of disease as a value-free scientific concept. In
responding to all those who criticized this view, which came to be
called "naturalism" or "neutralism," Boorse clarifies and updates
his landmark ideas on this crucial question. Other distinguished
thinkers analyze, develop, and oftentimes defend competing,
nonnaturalistic theories of disease. Their combined thoughts review
and update an issue of central importance in bioethics today.
