  4. Bioethics and Cancer: When the Professional Becomes Personal.Rebecca Dresser - 2011 - Hastings Center Report 41 (6):14-18.
    In 2006, I was diagnosed with cancer. This began a crash course in real-world medical ethics. Having cancer was awful, but it was instructive, too. The experience gave me a new understanding of what my profession is about. Individuals in the bioethics field often address topics related to cancer, such as medical decision-making, the patient-physician relationship, clinical trials, and access to health care. Yet few engaged in this work have lived with cancer themselves. Experience as a cancer patient or family (...)

  5. Measuring merit in animal research.Rebecca Dresser - 1989 - Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 10 (1).
    Merit review of scientific projects involving laboratory animals is a central issue in the current debate over the ethics of animal experimentation. In this essay, I examine several conceptual, regulatory, and practical problems inherent in the merit review process. Contemporary challenges to the existing merit review system and suggestions for reform are also discussed. The essay concludes with comments on legal and political questions relevant to the future of merit assessment.

    Medical choices and changing selves.Rebecca Dresser - 2023 - Journal of Medical Ethics 49 (6):403-403.
    In The Harm Principle, Personal Identity and Identity-Relative Paternalism,1 Wilkinson offers a thoughtful argument about medical decision-making and Derek Parfit’s reductionist account of personal identity. I agree that Parfit’s account can contribute to the ethical analysis of patients’ choices. My own work in this area emphasises challenges the reductionist account presents to conventional understanding of advance treatment directives, particularly in cases involving people with dementia.2 I have also urged people making directives to consider the harm their directives could impose on (...)

    Pre-emptive suicide, precedent autonomy and preclinical Alzheimer disease.Rebecca Dresser - 2014 - Journal of Medical Ethics 40 (8):550-551.
    It's not unusual to hear someone say, ‘I'd rather be dead than have Alzheimer's’. In ‘Alzheimer Disease and Preemptive Suicide’,1 Dena Davis explains why this is a reasonable position. People taking this position will welcome the discovery of biomarkers permitting very early AD diagnosis, Davis suggests, for this will enable more of them to end their lives while they remain motivated and able to do so. At the same time, Davis observes, people would have less reason to resort to the (...)

    Advance Directives and Discrimination against People with Dementia.Rebecca Dresser - 2018 - Hastings Center Report 48 (4):26-27.
    In the article “On Avoiding Deep Dementia,” Norman Cantor defends a position that I suspect many readers share. In my years writing and speaking on advance directives and dementia, I've found that most people support one of two positions. They are convinced either that advance choices should control the treatment dementia patients receive or that the welfare of a person with dementia should sometimes take priority over earlier choices. As Cantor points out, I support the second position.I agree with several (...)

    Inclusion, Access, and Civility in Public Bioethics.Rebecca Dresser - 2017 - Hastings Center Report 47 (S1):46-49.
    I could tell many war stories about my experience serving on the President's Council on Bioethics—one of the most controversial national bioethics commissions so far—but I want to focus instead on how the experience influenced my views on bioethics, politics, and the potential contributions of national commissions. The executive order that established the Council directed it to consider policy questions, but it spoke primarily of providing a forum for national discussion, inquiry, and education. In this sense, the Council's mission departed (...)

    On Legalizing Physician‐Assisted Death for Dementia.Rebecca Dresser - 2017 - Hastings Center Report 47 (4):5-6.
    Last November, soon after Colorado became the latest state to authorize physician-assisted suicide, National Public Radio's The Diane Rehm Show devoted a segment to legalization of “physician assistance in dying,” a label that refers to both physician-assisted suicide and voluntary active euthanasia. Although the segment initially focused on PAD in the context of terminal illness in general, it wasn't long before PAD's potential application to dementia patients came up. A caller said that her mother had Alzheimer's disease and was being (...)

    Private-sector research ethics: Marketing or good conflicts management? The 2005 John J. Conley lecture on medical ethics. [REVIEW]Rebecca Dresser - 2006 - Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 27 (2):115-139.
    Pharmaceutical companies are major sponsors of biomedical research. Most scholars and policymakers focus their attention on government and academic oversight activities, however. In this article, I consider the role of pharmaceutical companies’ internal ethics statements in guiding decisions about corporate research and development (R&D). I review materials from drug company websites and contributions from the business and medical ethics literature that address ethical responsibilities of businesses in general and pharmaceutical companies in particular. I discuss positive and negative uses of pharmaceutical (...)

    Edmund Pellegrino and the Art of Civilized Dialectics.Rebecca Dresser - 2014 - Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal 24 (2):113-119.
    I turn first to a Journal of Medicine and Philosophy article Pellegrino published the year after he became chairman of the council. He was facing a new challenge in his long and stellar career. He appreciated the difficulties he would encounter in his new role, and this was an opportunity to consider what was ahead."Bioethics and Politics: ‘Doing Ethics’ in the Public Square" (2006) criticized what Pellegrino saw as a troubling turn in bioethics at that time. The article began with (...)

    A Tale of Two Disciplines: Law and Bioethics.Rebecca Dresser - 2017 - Perspectives in Biology and Medicine 60 (1):47-59.
    Karen Quinlan played a big part in my decision to become a lawyer. When this nation's first high-profile right-to-die case was litigated in the 1970s, I was a college graduate who wasn't sure what to do next. I had majored in psychology and sociology and had thought about graduate study in one of those fields. But In re Quinlan ) pointed me in a different direction.Karen Quinlan was a young woman who had temporarily stopped breathing after taking tranquilizers and drinking (...)

    Demagogues, Firefighters, and Window Dressers: Who Are We and What Should We Be?Tuija Takala - 2005 - Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics 14 (4):385-388.
    The growing interest in bioethics has given rise to a new group of experts: experts in bioethics. They come from different walks of life and their motives, claims, and qualifications for expertise are manifold. Various academic disciplines can be said to contribute to one's status as an expert in bioethics. Studies and research in, say, philosophy, law, anthropology, history, theology, and sociology with an emphasis on bioethical matters are often thought of as suitably qualifying a person as a bioethicist. In (...)

    Public Practices and Personal Perspectives.Gregory E. Kaebnick - 2017 - Hastings Center Report 47 (S1):2-3.
    I once heard John Arras, who was one of bioethics’ bright lights and, toward the end of his life, a member of the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, remark that it is hard for an ethics commission not to “do paint‐by‐numbers ethics.” What I think Arras had in mind is an approach that, in the set of essays that make up this special report, Rebecca Dresser describes as a listing of “general, often relatively uncontroversial” moral positions (...)

    AEDs are problematic, but Mrs A is a misleading case.Paul T. Menzel - 2019 - Journal of Medical Ethics 45 (2):90-91.
    The case of Mrs A is a provocative example of euthanasia by advance directive to avoid increasingly severe dementia. It is also a ‘perfect storm’ of a disturbing case, revealing both the challenges that can arise with advance euthanasia directives generally and particular issues in the Dutch procedures. Kim, Miller and Dresser have done a distinct service to bioethics in detailing the case, in explaining the basis of the regional euthanasia review committee reprimand of the administering geriatrician and in (...)

  19. Advance directives and the severely demented.Martin Harvey - 2006 - Journal of Medicine and Philosophy 31 (1):47 – 64.
    Should advance directives (ADs) such as living wills be employed to direct the care of the severely demented? In considering this question, I focus primarily on the claims of Rebecca Dresser who objects in principle to the use of ADs in this context. Dresser has persuasively argued that ADs are both theoretically incoherent and ethically dangerous. She proceeds to advocate a Best Interest Standard as the best way for deciding when and how the demented ought to be treated. (...)

  21. Advancing an advance directive debate.Christopher Buford - 2008 - Bioethics 22 (8):423-430.
    A challenge has recently been levelled against the legal and/or moral legitimacy of some advance directives. It has been argued that in certain cases an advance directive carries no weight in a decision on whether to withhold treatment, since the individual in the debilitating state is not the same person as the person who created the advance directive. In the first section of this paper, I examine two formulations of the argument against the moral legitimacy of the advance directives under (...)

    Whither the transvestite? Theorising male-to-female transvestism in feminist and queer theory.Samantha Allen - 2014 - Feminist Theory 15 (1):51-72.
    Male-to-female transvestism is a complex phenomenon that is often confused with other manifestations of male-to-female cross-dressing, e.g. drag performance. As a practice, male-to-female transvestism remains under-theorised in feminist and queer literature. In this article I approach male-to-female transvestism from two different directions. First, I sketch out some of the meta-theoretical issues surrounding its place in feminist and queer scholarship. Second, I hone in on particular details of male-to-female transvestite culture in order to model the kind of attentive reading that male-to-female (...)

    The Concepts of Salaf and Salafiyya in Ibn Taymiyya.İsmail Akkoyunlu - 2019 - Cumhuriyet İlahiyat Dergisi 23 (1):545-562.
    Salafism is one of the most important issues of the last few centuries. There are intense discussions on the issues related to Salafism, its emergence, how it was first used by whom and in what sense. Discussions about Salafism are sometimes experienced in relation to whether this concept corresponds to a mentality or to a sect, and sometimes this phenomenon is brought up in relation to a number of important names that have taken place in the history of Islamic thought.

    In the mid to late 1980s a debate arose over the moral and legal authority of advance medical directives. At the center of this debate were two point-counterpoint law journal articles by Rebecca Dresser and Nancy Rhoden. What appeared to have the makings of an ongoing critical dialogue ended with the untimely death of Nancy Rhoden. Rebecca Dresser, however, has continued her challenge of advance directives in numerous publications, most recently in a critique of Ronald Dworkin's Life's Dominion. (...)

    Weakly higher order cylindric algebras and finite axiomatization of the representables.I. Németi & A. Simon - 2009 - Studia Logica 91 (1):53 - 62.
    We show that the variety of n -dimensional weakly higher order cylindric algebras, introduced in Németi [9], [8], is finitely axiomatizable when n > 2. Our result implies that in certain non-well-founded set theories the finitization problem of algebraic logic admits a positive solution; and it shows that this variety is a good candidate for being the cylindric algebra theoretic counterpart of Tarski’s quasi-projective relation algebras.

    Some Problems of the Scientific-Philosophical Theory of Truth I. Recent Epistemological Subjectivism and the Problem of Truth.T. I. Oizerman - 1983 - Russian Studies in Philosophy 21 (4):7-32.
    The concept of truth is a fundamental category in the theory of knowledge and philosophy in general. Other philosophical categories presuppose the concept of truth as their content or as the goal of investigatory inquiry. Philosophy begins historically with rejection of any form of opinion in the name of truth and with the counterposing of what truly exists to the variety of appearance. Thus was born theoretical thought, for which in antiquity philosophy was a synonym.

    The Silent Cooperator: An Epigenetic Model for Emergence of Altruistic Traits in Biological Systems.I. Hashem, D. Telen, P. Nimmegeers & J. Van Impe - 2018 - Complexity 2018:1-16.
    Spatial evolutionary game theory explains how cooperative traits can survive the intense competition in biological systems. If the spatial distribution allows cooperators to interact with each other frequently, the benefits of cooperation will outweigh the losses due to exploitation by selfish organisms. However, for a cooperative behavior to get established in a system, it needs to be found initially in a sufficiently large cluster to allow a high frequency of intracooperator interactions. Since mutations are rare events, this poses the question (...)

    Being and Structure.I. Hrusowski - 1972 - Russian Studies in Philosophy 11 (3):211-223.
    In current philosophical literature we encounter many contradictions, in particular, numerous difficulties and conflicts concerned with differentiation between the logical and ontological approaches to defining the category of matter; with an adequate interpretation of the categories of essence, substance, structure, and quality; with certain problems in the dialectics of practice and theory; and so forth. In this article, I shall consider the problem of being and structure. A correct understanding of this problem presumes, above all, a fundamental distinction between the (...)

    Some Problems in the Logic of Motion.I. Iu Petrov - 1964 - Russian Studies in Philosophy 3 (2):35-42.
    Many methods are conceivable for resolution of the difficulties arising when motion is depicted in the logic of concepts. We shall set forth some of these methods, presenting them within the framework of the discussion in which V. I. Sviderskii, B. A. Dragun, and I. S. Narskii have already participated. In our opinion, attention must be directed primarily to the fact that in resolving the contradictions in the presentation of motion by means of ideal mathematical abstractions, it is impossible to (...)

This epoch is still a puzzle: it was a flourishing period for the creative powers of European humanity and at the same time the beginning of the tragic "breakdown" of history that gave birth to two world wars and unprecedented calamities, the consequences of which Europe has (...)
