To Relieve the Human Condition: Bioethics, Technology, and the Body
Gerald P. McKenny (ed.)
State University of New York Press (1997)
Abstract
Argues that standard forms of bioethics support the technological utopianism of medicine. Puts forth an alternative agenda arguing that the task of bioethics is to explore the moral significance of the body as it is expressed in the discourse and practice of moral and religious traditions.
