The Heterogeneity of Bioethics: Discussions of Harm, Abortion, and Conceptual Clarity of Bioethical Terminology

Abstract

AbstractThis issue of The Journal of Medicine and Philosophy exemplifies the diverse range of topics that fall under the scope of bioethics and the philosophy of medicine. The eight essays in this number challenge many of the underlying assumptions made in the philosophy of medicine, health care, the abortion debate, the nature of harm, disability, the moral status of human beings, and pandemic lockdown procedures.
