A collection celebrating some of the best essays from the Blackwell
journals, "Bioethics "and "Developing World Bioethics."
Contributors include Helga Kuhse, Michael Selgelid and Baroness
Mary Warnock, former Chair of the British Government's "Committee
of Inquiry into Human Fertilization and Embryology's."
Traces some of the most important concerns of the 1980s, such as
the ethics of euthanasia, reproductive technologies, the allocation
of scarce medical resources, surrogate motherhood, through to a
range of new issues debated today, particularly in the field of
genetics.
Includes contributions that are still as hotly debated today as
they were 20 years ago and serves as a salutary reminder that free
and open discussion is vital to the health of the discipline
itself.
Includes eight sections comprising some of the journals' best
publications in methodological issues, the health care
professional-patient relationship, public health ethics, research
ethics, genetics, as well as beginning- and end-of-life issues.
Will serve the academic bioethicists as well as students of
bioethics as an excellent source book.
