Description: |
Ethics and Perinatology explores the important issues concerning moral problems in the care and treatment of the foetus just before birth and the baby just after birth. Each issue is addressed by an eminent clinician whose writing is then discussed by either a medical ethicist, a legal theorist, or an economist. |
Synopsis: |
The rapid development of new technology used in obstetrics and neonatology has been accompanied by new moral problems presented by the choices this technology generates. Ethics and Perinatology is a timely examination of the moral problems caused by clinical and research practices in perinatology. 14 major issues are each addressed by a leading clinician whose writing is then critically reviewed by a medical ethicist, a legal theorist, or an economist. Thus each chapter embodies the independent perspectives of international experts from different disciplines. This book offers a new approach to the presentation of ideas in medical ethics concerning obstetrics and perinatology that will benefit all physicians, nurses, philosophers, and medical ethicists, as well as the interested lay reader. |
