摘要
Does Buddhism have anything of value to contribute to contemporary discussions on medical ethics? Can there be a 'Buddhist view' on ethical problems? Does Buddhism hold that view to be objectively true rather than just a matter of 'personal opinion'? Buddhism and Bioethics gives affirmative answers to all these questions. It is the first book to provide a comprehensive discussion of a number of central issues in contemporary medical ethics from a Buddhist perspective. Written for a general readership it requires no prior knowledge of Buddhism, ethics or medicine, but will be of value to anyone with an interest in any, or all, of these subjects.
