The Oxford Handbook of Bioethics

Abstract

An authoritative, state-of-the-art guide to current issues in bioethics. Thirty topics are covered in original essays written by some of the world’s leading figures in the field. The essays address both perennial issues, such as the methodology of bioethics, autonomy, justice, death, and moral status, and newer issues, such as biobanking, stem cell research, cloning, pharmacogenomics, and bioterrorism.
