Brings together leading historians of medicine to explore the intersection of government power and medical knowledge in revealing studies of human experimentation. The examples given illustrate the extent to which living human bodies have been "useful" and emphasize the need for intense regulation. Though notoriously associated with Germany, human experimentation in the name of science has been practised in other countries, as well, both before and after the Nazi era. The use of unwitting or unwilling subjects in experiments designed to test the effects of radiation and disease on the human body emerged at the turn of the 20th century, when the rise of the modern, coercive state and the professionalization of medical science converged. "Useful Bodies" brings together leading historians of medicine to explore the intersection of government power and medical knowledge in revealing studies of human experimentation - germ warfare and jaundice tests in Great Britain; radiation, malaria and hepatitis experiments in the US; and nuclear fallout trials in Australia. These examples of medical abuse illustrate the extent to which living human bodies have been "useful" to democratic states and emphasize the need for intense scrutiny and regulation to prevent future violations.

Les recherches impliquant des populations vulnérables présentent peut-être la plus grande difficulté lorsqu'il s'agit de concilier les exigences contradictoires de l'éthique et de la recherche. Les institutions sociales ont évolué en vue de protéger et d'améliorer la vie des personnes vulnérables, enfants, personnes âgées, malades mentaux au déficients. La communauté internationale s'accorde sur le fait que des recherches doivent être menées afin de faire progresser la connaissance scientifique des maladies qui affectent particulièrement les populations vulnérables. Cependant, la recherche non thérapeutique impliquant de telles populations soulève des inquiétudes quant à la légitimité du consentement, au rôle du décideur-substitut, au rapport risque/bénéfice et aux mesures de sauvegarde. Ce troisième volume de L'éthique de la recherche aborde ces questions en demeurant fidèle au style de réflexion historique et philosophique des deux précédents volumes.

A history of the controversial practice of self-experimentation. In telling the stories of pioneering researchers, the text offers a history of many of the most important medical advancements in recent years as well as centuries past - from anesthaesia to yellow fever to heart disease. Lawrence Altman has authored the only complete history of the controversial and understudied practice of self-experimentation. In telling the stories of pioneering researchers, Altman offers a history of many of the most important medical advancements in recent years as well as centuries past--from anesthesia to yellow fever to heart disease. With a new preface, he brings readers up to date and continues his discussion of the ethics and controversy that continue to surround a practice that benefits millions but is understood by few.
