Autonomy, Responsibility, and Health Care. Critical Reflections

This book brings before the readers’ eyes the work of a group of dedicated
researchers whose interest lies in moral philosophy and applied
ethics. The contributors had the liberty to choose the application fields
and the examples that best illustrate their arguments. Nevertheless,
they all put the main stress on two issues which seems to be the key to
understand many of the today’s bioethical challenges: the autonomy
claim and the question of moral responsibility arising in various fields
of applied medical research.
