Читать книгу This Is Bioethics - Udo Schüklenk, Ruth F. Chadwick - Страница 29

3.1 This chapter provides you with a brief history of bioethics and its scope. We will also look at how bioethicists contribute in ethical review committees to necessary ethics oversight, and in government appointed bioethics commissions to addressing practical policy issues. This matters, because it is at this intersection of policy and bioethics that academic ethicists sometimes wield genuine policy influence. Last but not least we will introduce some commonly used, yet typically flawed arguments, that you will come across frequently in public debates on matters concerning bioethics or biopolicy.
