{"product_id":"embodying-bioethics-9780847689255","title":"Embodying Bioethics","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this important book, a distinguished group of feminist scholars and activists discuss crucial bioethics topics in a feminist light. Among the subjects explored are the care\/justice debates, transforming bioethics, practice, and reproduction. The book also covers less commonly discussed issues, such as culturally appropriate responses to reproductive health problems in developing countries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA welcome resource for teaching and discussing tough issues with trustworthy help. * Waterwheel *\u003cbr\u003eRight from the start the book gives the reader fresh insights. The depth of analysis of issues already much discussed stimulates new questions. Other issues that have been less considered are addressed in thorough and thought-provoking ways. Many of the authors not only present their analysis clearly but also force the reader—as the authors force themselves—to wonder if an analysis or political strategy is effective, so that these writings meet the highest standards of scholarship. Anyone interested in feminist bioethics will want it on her, or his, shelf. * Religious Studies Review *\u003cbr\u003eThis volume contributes to an understanding of expanding feminist approaches, which are not only setting out an agenda for social change but are moving to undergird this agenda with vital, well-supported arguments. * Ethics: An International Journal of Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy *\u003cbr\u003eThis book is very successful. Overall the individual contributions move the conversation forward, either interjecting a feminist voice into a specific topic or highlighting less visible facets of a debate. I doubt that this book will collect dust on my shelves. * Philosophy in Review *\u003cbr\u003eWell-written. Medical ethics professionals and advanced students should read this book, and libraries serving medical ethics courses should have it. -- M.
