With the advance of biomedicine, certain individuals and groups are
vulnerable because of their incapacities to defend themselves. The
International Bioethics Committee as a UNESCO working group has for
the last several years dedicated to deepen this principle of human
vulnerability and personal integrity. This book serves to
supplement this effort with a religious perspective given a great
number of the world's population is affiliated with some religious
traditions. While there is diversity within each of these
traditions, all of them carry in them the mission to protect the
weak, the underprivileged, and the poor. Thus, here presented is a
collection of papers written by bioethics experts from six major
world religions-Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism,
Islam and Judaism-who were gathered to discuss the meaning and
implications of the principle of vulnerability in their respective
traditions.
