Great Reading Collection on the Topic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Good collection of dated, but still pertinent issues concerning this growing area of ethics.This text was one of the textbooks used in a graduate class taken on bioethics. Enjoyed the range of authors and perspectives on the topics of abortion, handicapped children, death and dying, research and human experimentation, informed consent, genetic engineering, allocation of scarce resources.Inputs are given from medical, philosophy and religious perspectives, leaning more towards the first two. This will provide an adequate base for one to springboard from into further delving, utilizing additional current bibliographical sources to explore pertinent areas of interest.
