内容説明
This book is designed to tap into professional, public and media interest in the dilemmas of healthcare ethics and to provide a useful tool for healthcare professionals to consider some of the most current issues in detail including: the social creation of health law and healthcare; access to healthcare and control of its quality (including the prevention of health crime as well as civil control); genetics and disability at the beginning of life; vaccination and medical research during life; and, euthanasia at the end of life and the exercise, control and use of body parts after life. Many of the pieces have a sociological and/or empirical as well as ethical bent.
