Bioethics: A Philosophical Introduction
"Stephen Holland takes us beyond sound-bites and media hype. In an analytically rigorous and engaging way, he links questions of euthanasia, embryo experimentation and xenotransplantation to such philosophical issues as moral status and personal identity. The subject badly needs contributions of this kind. Holland's book will be welcomed by all those who want to gain a deeper understanding of a subject of enormous complexity."Helga Kuhse Centre for Human Bioethics, Monash University<!--end-->"This refreshing approach to bioethics fills a significant gap in the literature by structuring discussion around four deontological themes. A must for everyone who wants to understand and think clearly about nonconsequentialist bioethics, this book engages with issues at the forefront of contemporary debate."Ruth Chadwick, ESRC Centre for the Economic and Social Aspects of Genomics, Lancaster University
