Handbook of Bioethics:: Taking Stock of the Field from a Philosophical Perspective
ISBN: 9781402018930 / Angielski / Miękka / 570 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In general, the history of virtue theory is well-documented (Sherman, 1997; O Neill, 1996). Its relationship to medicine is also recorded in our work and in that of others (Pellegrino and Thomasma, 1993b; 1996; Drane, 1994; Ellos, 1990). General publications stress the importance of training the young in virtuous practices. Still, the popularity of education in virtue is widely viewed as part of a conservative backlash to modern liberal society. Given the authorship of some of these works by professional conservatives like William Bennett (1993; 1995), this concern is authentic. One might...

Euthanasia: Death with Dignity and the Law
ISBN: 9781841130910 / Angielski / Twarda / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many advocates of euthanasia consider the criminal law to be an inappropriate medium to adjudicate the profound ethical and humanitarian dilemmas associated with end of life decisions. This work examines the legal response to euthanasia and end of life decisions and considers whether legal reform is an appropriate response to calls for euthanasia to be more readily available as a mechanism for providing death with dignity. Through an analysis of consent to treatment and medical decision making, euthanasia is carefully located within its legal, medical, and social contexts. This book focuses...

Does the possibility of establishing genetic parentage with practical certainty necessitate reform of current legal regimes of parenthood? And what...

ISBN: 9781844721054 / Angielski / Twarda / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law argues that the law governing the ending of life in England and Wales is unclear, confused and often contradictory. The book shows that the rules are in competition because the ethical principles underlying the rules are also diverse and conflicting. In mounting his case Richard Huxtable considers some familiar and topical debates, including assisted suicide and voluntary euthanasia, examining such situations as the Dianne Pretty litigation and Lord Joffe's Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill. The book also enters some... Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law argues that the law governing the ending of life in England and Wales is unclear, confused and often contra... |
