Justice is foundational to discussion, debate, and policy making surrounding biomedical research. Time-tested for more than 20 years, Beyond Consent examines the concept of justice and its application to research with human subjects, through multiple lenses of research populations of people who are sick (including those needing emergency medical care), cognitively impaired, children, captive and convenient (such as prisoners), women, racial minorities, communities, and living in international settings. This second edition includes new chapters on todayâs leading-edge topics as well as updated chapters that consider what has changed, and what new matters have arisen. The result is a fresh treatment of the latest issues and concepts of justice in research examined by multidisciplinary scholars. This volume is a vital resource for students and scholars of bioethics, medicine, and public health policy; as well as for members of institutional review boards, research administrators, and policy makers.

Medical ethics draws upon methods from a wide array of disciplines, including anthropology, economics, epidemiology, health services research, history, law, medicine, nursing, philosophy, psychology, sociology, and theology. In this influential book, outstanding scholars in medical ethics bring these many methods together in one place to be systematically described, critiqued, and challenged. Newly revised and updated chapters in this second edition include philosophy, religion and theology, virtue and professionalism, casuistry and clinical ethics, law, history, qualitative research, ethnography, quantitative surveys, experimental methods, and economics and decision science. This second edition also includes new chapters on literature and sociology, as well as a second chapter on philosophy which expands the range of philosophical methods discussed to include gender ethics, communitarianism, and discourse ethics. In each of these chapters, contributors provide descriptions of the methods, critiques, and notes on resources and training."Methods in Medical Ethics" is a valuable resource for scholars, teachers, editors, and students in any of the disciplines that have contributed to the field. As a textbook and reference for graduate students and scholars in medical ethics, it offers a rich understanding of the complexities involved in the rigorous investigation of moral questions in medical practice and research.

An essential overview of the methods of bioethics scholarship and practice—updated, expanded, and revisedThe pioneering first edition of Methods in Medical Ethics was the first systematic examination of how the methods of a wide variety of disciplines can inform the analysis and understanding of issues in medical ethics. This new edition has been updated to correspond with bioethics today, covering a broader range of disciplinary perspectives and methods, not only for bioethics research but also for bioethics practice.Bioethicists and editors Sugarman and Sulmasy have solicited chapter contributions from outstanding scholars around the globe representing a range of major disciplines that contribute to bioethics. These chapters describe important conceptual and empirical methods (e.g., qualitative and quantitative survey techniques, experiments in real-world settings, and digital ethics) used in the field. A new section on practical ethics includes chapters covering clinical ethics, research ethics, public health ethics, and public bioethics. The book emphasizes that what counts as "good" work in bioethics is determined in large part by the proper application of methods to the issues at hand. As such, it will be invaluable for students, established scholars, practitioners, and readers of the bioethics literature.
