This title was first published in 2001. An important book
presenting the results of the European Union funded EURICON project
in biomedical ethics. Involving experts in eleven countries, this
project was motivated by European neonatal clinicians' concerns
about the problem of obtaining informed consent in neonatal
research. It addressed the difficulties of obtaining consent from
subjects involved in such research, and investigated the relevance
and appropriateness of obtaining consent from parents. The project
also examined the work of Research Ethics Committees in Europe. It
explored their responses to EURICON's analysis of the views of
clinicians and parents, and their attitudes towards the relevant
laws and legal requirements. The wide geographical scope of the
project enabled international comparisons of the opinions of
clinicians and parents, the legal frameworks governing neonatal
research, and the effectiveness of Research Ethics Committees. This
is the first such investigation on a European scale, and it offers
a unique interdisciplinary approach to these issues. Incorporating
clinical, ethical, legal and sociological perspectives, the results
and recommendations presented in this book will be of widespread
significance to practitioners, researchers and policy makers
throughout Europe and beyond.
