This book reflects on the many contributions made in and to
European bioethics to date, in various locations, and from various
disciplinary perspectives. In so doing, the book advances
understanding of the academic and social status of European
bioethics as it is being supported and practiced by various
disciplines such as philosophy, law, medicine, and the social
sciences, applied to a wide range of areas. The European focus
offers a valuable counter-balance to an often prominent US
understanding of bioethics. The volume is split into four parts.
The first contains reflection on bioethics in the past, present and
future, and also considers how comparison between countries and
disciplines can enrich bioethical discourse. The second looks at
bioethics in particular locations and contexts, including: policy,
boardrooms and courtrooms; studios and virtual rooms; and society,
while the third part explores the translation of theories and
concepts of bioethics into the clinical setting. The fourth and
final section focuses on academic expressions of bioethics, as it
is theorised in various disciplines and also as it is taught,
whether in classrooms or at the patient's bedside. The book
features unique contributions from a range of experts including:
Alastair V Campbell; Ruth Chadwick; Angus Dawson; Raymond G. De
Vries; Suzanne Ost; Renzo Pegoraro; Rouven Porz; Paul Schotsmans;
Jochen Vollmann; Guy Widdershoven and Hub Zwart. Chapter 10 of this
book ''You Don't Need Proof When You've Got Instinct!': Gut
Feelings and Some Limits to Parental Authority' by Giles Birchley
