George Sand: A Brave Man, the Most Womanly Woman
ISBN: 9780854965366 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. George Sand was admired by Dostoevsky, Whitman, Flaubert, Thackeray and Elizabeth Barret Browning as on of the greatest writers of her time. Her sixty novels received critical acclaim and earned her enough money to donate over a million pounds to socialist causes. But now she is remembered mainly as a 'femme fatale' who wore trousers, smoked cigars and lived with Chopin, among other well-known men. In this critical introduction to Sand's works, Dickenson pulls together all the myths about her and vigorously challenges them, offering fresh insights into Sand's writings, sexuality and the...

Me Medicine vs. We Medicine: Reclaiming Biotechnology for the Common Good
ISBN: 9780231159753 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Personalized healthcare--or what the award-winning author Donna Dickenson calls "Me Medicine"--is radically transforming our longstanding "one-size-fits-all" model. Technologies such as direct-to-consumer genetic testing, pharmacogenetically developed therapies in cancer care, private umbilical cord blood banking, and neurocognitive enhancement claim to cater to an individual's specific biological character, and, in some cases, these technologies have shown powerful potential. Yet in others they have produced negligible or even negative results. Whatever is behind the rise of Me Medicine, it...

Property, Women, and Politics: Subjects or Objects?
ISBN: 9780813524580 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Although many feminist authors have pointed out the ways in which women have been property, they have been less successful in suggesting how women might become the subjects rather than the objects of property holding. Property, Women, and Politics draws on a series of historical and anthropological studies which include the property position of women in classical Greece, the Anglo-American doctrine of coverture, nineteenth-century prostitution, and structural adjustment programs in sub-Saharan Africa; and it includes a comprehensive critique of the treatment of property by both mainstream...

Risk and Luck in Medical Ethics
ISBN: 9780745621456 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Ethics is commonly assumed to be the one realm in which luck and risk do not
intrude. It has been said that 'While one can be lucky in one's business, in one's married life, and in one's health, one cannot, so it is commonly assumed, be subject to luck as far as one's moral worth is concerned.' But although we do not normally hold people responsible for outcomes beyond their control, a serious examination of the role of luck and risk may lead us to conclude that very few outcomes are really within people's control. This is the paradox of 'moral luck'.... Ethics is commonly assumed to be the one realm in which luck and risk do not

Property in the Body: Feminist Perspectives
ISBN: 9781316613740 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. We live in an era when all bodies are potentially 'feminised' by being rendered 'open-access' for biomedical research and clinical practice. Adopting a theoretically sophisticated and practical approach, Property in the Body: Feminist Perspectives rejects the notion that the sale of bodily tissue enhances the freedom of the individual through an increase in moral agency. Combining feminist theory and bioethics, it also addresses the omissions which are inherent in policy analysis and academic debate. For example, whilst women's tissue is particularly central to new biotechnologies, the...
