The Biological Foundations of Bioethics
Oxford, U.K.: Oxford University Press (2015)
Abstract
Much recent work on the ethics of new biomedical technologies is committed to hidden, contestable views about the nature of biological reality. This selection of essays by Tim Lewens explores and scrutinises these biological foundations, and includes work on human enhancement, synthetic biology, and justice in healthcare decision-making.Author's Profile
