Presents bioethics as requiring an inductive method, with careful attention to historical, medical, scientific and social detail. Examines the major issues from scientific, medical, legal and ethical perspectives, focusing on Canadian examples, laws and debates. This multidisciplinary approach makes the text appropriate not only for the students of philosophy and religion, but also for a variety of medical and legal studies.; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; BIOETHICS MEDICAL Canada Law 499 pages including index.
