Abstract

The Cambridge World History of Medical Ethics is the first comprehensive scholarly account of the global history of medical ethics. Offering original interpretations of the field by leading bioethicists and historians of medicine, it will serve as the essential point of departure for future scholarship in the field. The volumes reconceptualize the history of medical ethics through the creation of new categories, including the life cycle; discourses of religion, philosophy, and bioethics; and the relationship between medical ethics and the state, which includes a historical reexamination of the ethics of apartheid, colonialism, communism, health policy, imperialism, militarism, Nazi medicine, Nazi "medical ethics," and research ethics. Also included are the first global chronology of persons and texts; the first concise biographies of major figures in medical ethics; and the first comprehensive bibliography of the history of medical ethics. An extensive index guides readers to topics, texts, and proper names.

Abstract

Is bioethics only about medicine and health care? Law? Philosophy? Social issues? No, on all accounts. It embraces all these and more. In this book, fifteen notable scholars from the North West of England critically explore the main approaches to bioethics-and make a scratch on its polished surface.

Abstract

Vieillir dans la dignité, un combat, une revendication, une nécessité, un pari pour l’avenir. Certains diront qu’il s’agit d’une folie, que la vieillesse est nécessairement une déchéance, un naufrage, un rappel à l’homme de sa vraie nature… Nous devons imaginer la réalité de demain, dans cent ou deux cents ans, et faire le pari que la vieillesse y sera différente, plus douce, mieux reconnue. Mais nous devons aussi, dès aujourd’hui, engager le combat pour que vieillir soit dans un avenir proche un peu plus acceptable. Cela est possible car cette dignité que nous réclamons se battit aussi à force d’amour, de respect, de foi en l’homme. Chacun a droit à une vieillesse digne, à ce morceau de vie où les souvenirs s’embellissent où «les traces enfouies dans le cerveau – disait Beaudelaire – dorment sous les autres légendes». Avec une espérance de vie quasiment multipliée par trois depuis deux siècles, l’homme est «condamné» à réorganiser sa vieillesse. L’essentiel est de conserver du lien social, de la chaleur humaine, de la liberté et même, pourquoi pas, la possibilité d’assumer encore le risque de la vie! On verra alors que c’est l’indignité, l’humiliation, la désespérance, le déracinement, l’enfermement qui sont réellement mortifères. Au contraire, le rire, l’affection, le respect et l’accompagnement sont sécurisants, porteurs de vie et d’harmonie.
