Jonathan (Hrsg.) Beever

Perspectives in Bioethics, Science, and Public Policy

Buch

In this title, nine thought-leaders engage with some of the hottest moral issues in science and ethics. Based on talks originally given at the annual Purdue Lectures in Ethics, Policy, and Science”, the chapters explore interconnections between the three areas in an engaging and accessible way. Addressing a mixed public audience, the authors go beyond dry theory to explore some of the difficult moral questions that face scientists and policy-makers every day.
