The Story of Bioethics : From Seminal Works to Contemporary Explorations Paperback / softback
Edited by Jennifer K. Walter, Eran P. Klein
Paperback / softback
Description
This literally "refreshing" collection is based on the notion that the future of bioethics is inseparable from its past.
Seminal works provide a unique and relatively unexplored vehicle for investigating not only where bioethics began, but where it may be going as well.
In this volume, a number of the pioneers in bioethics - Tom Beauchamp, Lisa Sowle Cahill, James Childress, Charles E.
Curran, Patricia King, H. Tristram Engelhardt, William F. May, Edmund D. Pellegrino, Warren Reich, Robert Veatch and LeRoy Walters - reflect on their early work and how they fit into the past and future of bioethics.
Coming from many disciplines, generations, and perspectives, these trailblazing authors provide a broad overview of the history and current state of the field.
Invaluable to anyone with a serious interest in the development and future of bioethics, at a time when new paths into medical questions are made almost daily, "The Story of Bioethics" is a Baedeker beyond compare.
