Issues in Biomedical Ethics

The late twentieth century has witnessed dramatic technological developments in biomedical science and the delivery of health care, and these developments have brought with them important social changes. All too often ethical analysis has lagged behind these changes.

The purpose of this series is to provide lively, up-to-date, and authoritative studies for the increasingly large and diverse readership concerned with issues in biomedical ethics--not just health care trainees and professionals, but also social scientists, philosophers, lawyers, social workers, and legislators. The series will feature both single-author and multi-author books, short and accessible enough to be widely read, each of them focused on an issue of outstanding current importance and interest. Philosophers, doctors, and lawyers from several countries already feature among the contributors to the series. It promises to become the leading channel for the best original work in this burgeoning field.

General Editors:

John Harris, University of Manchester and Soren Holm, University of Manchester.

Consulting Editors:

Ranaan Gillon, Director, Imperial College Health Service, London and Bonnie Steinbock, Professor of Philosophy, SUNY, Albany.
