Medical Ethics

As technology makes the world more accessible, it is increasingly important to develop a wide perspective on social issues as well as political, environmental, and health issues of global significance. This book offers readers a global viewpoint about medical ethics, from a variety of international perspectives. Readers will learn about how medical ethics are established, and how they interplay with the end of life. They will evaluate medical ethics and organ transplantation, and the relationship of ethics and medical research. Essay sources include The World Medical Association, UNESCO, Behzad Hassani, Koji Masuda, and Debarati Mukherjee.
