This is the first volume in which an account of personal
autonomy is developed that both captures the contours of this
concept as it is used in social philosophy and bioethics, and is
theoretically grounded in, and a part of, contemporary autonomy
theory. James Stacey Taylora (TM)s account is unique as it is
explicitly a political one, recognizing that the attribution of
autonomy to agents is dependent in part on their relationships with
others and not merely upon their own mental states. The volume is
distinctive in its examples, which touch on the ethics of using
inducements to encourage persons to participate in medical
research, the ethical issues associated with the use of
antibiotics, and the ethical basis for both patient confidentiality
and informed consent.
