The Cambridge world history of medical ethics / edited by Robert B. Baker, Laurence B. McCullough.
Livre
Edited by Cambridge University Press. Cambridge - 2018
'The Cambridge World History of Medical Ethics' is a comprehensive scholarly account of the global history of medical ethics. Offering original interpretations of the field by leading bioethicists and historians of medicine, it will serve as the essential point of departure for future scholarship in the field. The book reconceptualises the history of medical ethics through the creation of new categories, including the life cycle; discourses of religion, philosophy, and bioethics; and the relationship between medical ethics and the state, which includes a historical reexamination of the ethics of apartheid, colonialism, communism, health policy, imperialism, militarism, Nazi medicine, Nazi 'medical ethics', and research ethics.
