"Everyday Bioethics suggests a new perspective on the relationships between science, ethics, and society. It is based upon the distinction and integration of two fields: frontier bioethics, which examines the new development of biomedicine; and the bioethics of everyday life, which concerns all people around the world. Indeed, moral reflection on birth, human bodies, jobs, gender and class relations, diseases and the treatment of the sick, death, and the interdependence of human beings and other living creatures has a long history, as long as that of mankind itself. The ideas and values that daily permeate the minds and behaviors of all human beings in these areas deserve the greatest attention, and are increasingly influenced by the progress of science and technology."--Jacket.
