Critics Review

Remarkably well written… . Will serve as an excellent introduction to empirical bioethics for audiences from a wide variety of disciplines.

No better compliment can be paid to the editors and the contributors of Methods in Medical Ethics than to state that each chapter exemplifies the standards of good scholarship summed up in Sulmasy’s concluding discourse on method… A book that will be invaluable for students and teachers alike, a book to read and read again.
