New Essays on Abortion and Bioethics Hardback
Edited by Rem B. Edwards
Part of the Advances in Bioethics series

Description
Anthologies on abortion and general medical ethics texts often seem to recycle the same old, but good, arguments.
Can anything new be said about this sensitive and contentious topic?
Contributors to this volume were invited to say something original, as well as something old, but essential about the factual, valuational, religious and metaphysical issues relevant to abortion, all of which are woven together so intricately into our diverse and seemingly irreconcilable world-views.
Essays in this volume consider the conceptual links between views on abortion and foetal development, abortion procedures, religion, laws and public funding (or no funding) policies.
Authors also defend well-defined and differentiated positions on abortion that can broadly be described as the Roman Catholic, the Conservative, the Moderate and the Liberal positions. "New Essays on Abortion and Bioethics" will provide readers with useful models of critical and rational thinking for addressing the topic of abortion.
The essays will help to illuminate a subject about which there is often too much heat and too little light.
