It offers the reader an overview of key debates in bioethics relevant to various areas including; organ retrieval, stem cell research, justice in healthcare and issues in environmental ethics, including issues surrounding food and agriculture. The book also seeks to go beyond simply describing the issues in order to provide the reader with the methodological and theoretical tools for a more comprehensive understanding of current bioethical debates. The aim of the book is to present bioethics as an interdisciplinary field, to explore its close relation to other disciplines (such as law, life sciences, theology and philosophy), and to discuss the conditions under which bioethics can serve as an academically legitimate discipline that is at the same time relevant to society. As a systematic and methodologically rigorous overview, Bioethics: Methods, Theories, Domains will be of particular interest to academics and students in the disciplines of Law, Medicine, Ethics and Philosophy"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aBiomedical Law and Ethics Library 606 $aBioethics$xPhilosophy 615 0$aBioethics$xPhilosophy. 676 $a174.2 686 $aLAW093000$aLAW036000$aLAW000000$2bisacsh 700 $aDuwell$b Marcus$f1962-,$0605101 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786449003321 996 $aBioethics$93852716 997 $aUNINA
