Bioethics in the Clinic

About this book

"Gillett focuses on general and specific problems of clinical practice, particularly as they affect the physician-patient relationship. The author then addresses ethical problems related to both the end of life, including euthanasia, and the beginning of life, such as embryo and stem cell research. This book will be of interest to those in medical fields, to students and scholars of philosophy, and to lay readers interested in the profound ethical dramas played out in hospitals and doctors' offices."--Jacket.
