How influential has the Nazi analogy been in recent medical debates
on euthanasia? Is the history of eugenics being revived in modern
genetic technologies? And what does the tragic history of
thalidomide and its recent reintroduction for new medical
treatments tell us about how governments solve ethical dilemmas?
"Bioethics in Historical Perspective" shows how our understanding
of medical history still plays a part in clinical medicine and
medical research today. With clear and balanced explanations of
complex issues, this extensively documented set of case studies in
biomedical ethics explores the important role played by history in
thinking about modern medical practice and policy.
This book provides student readers with up-to-date information
about issues in bioethics, as well as a guide to the most
influential ethical standpoints. New twists added to well-known
stories will engage those more familiar with the challenging field
of contemporary bioethics.
