This title, developed by a group of collaborating scholars in bioethics from different European countries, gives an overview of the most salient themes in contemporary bioethics. Introductory chapters aim to guide the reader through the relevant dimensions of a particular area, while subsequent case discussions should help in the application of ethical theories to specific clinical problems and health policy queries. The book focuses on perspectives typical for the European context. This highlights not only particular bioethical themes such as social justice, choices in health care, and health policy (for ecxample, in post-communist countries), it also emphasizes specific approaches in ethical theory, in relation to continental philosophies such as phenomenology and hermeneutics.
