Beschreibung
Beginning Bioethics introduces students to the language of philosophical ethics before leading them in Part Two through six major issues in bioethics. The author gives clear explanations of all sides of a given issue and engages with several major contributions to the debate. This book can stand alone, but was written also to accompany the third edition of Bette-Jane Crigger's Cases in Bioethics, providing the philosophical counterpart to cases discussed there by US medical practitioners. Both books originate with St Martin's Press in the United States.
Well paced introductory section on the basis of ethics
Deals with very topical, and controversial, concerns
Illuminates areas of disagreement and conflicting ethical claims
Works well as a companion volume to Crigger (see related titles), in that the same major topics seen there from the viewpoint of the medical practitioner are followed through here from the philosophical perspective
