What is bioethics? What are its goals and theoretical assumptions?
Is it a unique discipline? Must medical ethics be grounded in
clinical experience? How can ethical inquiry inform medicine's
theory and practice? Must one have a definition of medicine before
one can have a medical ethic? Does medicine have a unique or
demarcating body of knowledge, methodology, or philosophy? These
questions are addressed by a distinguished roster of philosophers,
theologians, lawyers, social scientists, physicians and scientists.
The unifying theme of this text is a philosophical exploration of
the history, nature, scope and foundations of bioethics. There is a
critical evaluation of principled, communitarian, legal, narrative
and feminist approaches. The book's interdisciplinary focus allows
for a lively dialogue which includes papers and accompanying
commentaries. It should be of interest to philosophers of science
and medical ethicists, physicians, lawyers and policy makers.
