Product Information
Edited by Thomas A. Shann, this series provides anthologies of critical essays and reflections by leading ethicists in four pivotal areas: reproductive techlogies, genetic techlogies, death and dying, and health care policy. The goal of this series is twofold: first, to provide a set of readers on thematic topics for introductory or survey courses in bioethics or for courses with a particular theme or time limitation. Second, each of the readers in this series is designed to help students focus more thoroughly and effectively on specific topics that flesh out the ethical issues at the core of bioethics. The series is also highly accessible to general readers interested in bioethics.Product Identifiers
