Biotechnology creates new opportunities and possibilities, but also new dangers, risks, and ethical concerns. In this volume, ethical dilemmas in the context of a specific biomedical technology are discussed. Experts in ethics, philosophy, psychoanalysis, and medicine jointly investigated a field of prenatal and genetic research that seems particularly challenging: prenatal diagnostics. The new and innovative interdisciplinary dialogue on this topic that is presented in this volume offers a deeper understanding of the ethical dilemmas raised by prenatal and genetic diagnostics, and explores ways to support couples in this extremely difficult situation. 606 $aPrenatal diagnosis$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aFetus$xAbnormalities$xDiagnosis 606 $aGenetic screening$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aMedical ethics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPrenatal diagnosis$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aFetus$xAbnormalities$xDiagnosis. 615 0$aGenetic screening$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aMedical ethics. 676 $a174.2 676 $a618.32042 700 $aEngels$b Eve-Marie$0615010 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456958703321 996 $aThe Janus Face of Prenatal Diagnostics$91896508 997 $aUNINA
