When non-philosophers address personal identity, they often have in mind narrative identity: Which characteristics of a particular person are salient to her self-conception? This book develops accounts of both senses of identity, arguing that both are normatively important, and is unique in its exploration of a range of issues in bioethics through the lens of identity. Defending a biological view of our numerical identity and a framework for understanding narrative identity, DeGrazia investigates various issues for which considerations of identity prove critical: the definition of death; the authority of advance directives in cases of severe dementia; the use of enhancement technologies; prenatal genetic interventions; and certain types of reproductive choices. He demonstrates the power of personal identity theory to illuminate issues in bioethics as they bring philosophical theory to life. 517 3 $aHuman Identity & Bioethics 606 $aIdentity (Philosophical concept) 606 $aIdentification 606 $aHuman beings 606 $aBioethics 615 0$aIdentity (Philosophical concept) 615 0$aIdentification. 615 0$aHuman beings. 615 0$aBioethics. 676 $a179/.7 700 $aDeGrazia$b David$0471917 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457174203321 996 $aHuman identity and bioethics$92455527 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01957nas 2200469-a 450 001 996201089903316 005 20240413025630.0 035 $a(CKB)991042729515372 035 $a(CONSER)---89648924- 035 $a(EXLCZ)99991042729515372 100 $a20750921b18681942 --- b 101 0 $ager 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aJahrbuch über die Fortschritte der Mathematik 210 $aBerlin $cGeorg Reimer$d1871-1944 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aFor information about the Jahrbuch project, see https://www.emis.de/projects/jahrbuch-project/index.html 311 $aPrint version: Jahrbuch über die Fortschritte der Mathematik.
