As asymmetric 'wars among the people' replace state-on-state wars
in modern armed conflict, the growing role of military medicine and
medical technology in contemporary war fighting has brought an
urgent need to critically reassess the theory and practice of
military medical ethics. Military Medical Ethics for the 21st
Century is the first full length, broad-based treatment of this
important subject. Written by an international team of
practitioners and academics, this book provides interdisciplinary
insights into the major issues facing military-medical decision
makers and critically examines the tensions and dilemmas inherent
in the military and medical professions. In this book the authors
explore the practice of battlefield bioethics, medical neutrality
and treatment of the wounded, enhancement technologies for war
fighters, the potential risks of dual-use biotechnologies, patient
rights for active duty personnel, military medical research and
military medical ethics education in the 21st Century.
