The Voices and Rooms of European Bioethics, Hardback Book

The Voices and Rooms of European Bioethics Hardback

Edited by Richard (University of Bristol, UK) Huxtable, Ruud ter Meulen

Part of the Biomedical Law and Ethics Library series

Hardback

Description

This book reflects on the many contributions made in and to European bioethics to date, in various locations, and from various disciplinary perspectives.

In so doing, the book advances understanding of the academic and social status of European bioethics as it is being supported and practiced by various disciplines such as philosophy, law, medicine, and the social sciences, applied to a wide range of areas.

The European focus offers a valuable counter-balance to an often prominent US understanding of bioethics. The volume is split into four parts. The first contains reflection on bioethics in the past, present and future, and also considers how comparison between countries and disciplines can enrich bioethical discourse.

The second looks at bioethics in particular locations and contexts, including: policy, boardrooms and courtrooms; studios and virtual rooms; and society, while the third part explores the translation of theories and concepts of bioethics into the clinical setting.
