Description:
This volume provides everything needed to soundly grasp the ideas and issues involved in the field of bioethics. Building on the model used by Peter Singer in his highly successful Companion to Ethics, the Companion to Bioethics consists of 47 specially written essays designed to present the key issues and concepts in an authoritative, yet always readable, non-technical manner. An extremely comprehensive index allows readers to find terms and topics not listed in the titles of the essays themselves.
