Reviews
"....Geoffrey Miller has assembled some of the most notable bioethicists for this interesting and thought-provoking book. The book covers a broad range of topics, from basic concepts and theories in bioethics to chapters detailing specific and narrow issues.... senior scholars in pediatric ethics will likely find the book of interest.... would be best used among pediatric bioethics faculty members or senior pediatric ethics committee members, who would likely find many of the chapters interesting while using others as a springboard for debate." --John L. Zeller, MD, PhD, Books and Media Reviews Section Editor, JAMA, 'A useful resource to be dipped in and out of for practitioners involved in the care of children from birth through to adolescent years.'
