A Handbook of Bioethics Terms

Laid out in alphabetical order, "A Handbook Of Bioethics Terms" by James B. Tubbs Jr. (Professor of Ethics and Religion, Department of Religious Studies, University of Detroit Mercy) is a compendium of terminology definitions in a glossary-style format with more than 400 entries on significant terms expressions, titles, and court cases that have shaped bioethical standards to what we have today. Entries are cross-referenced and thoroughly authoritative. A highly recommended and 'user friendly' basic reference for personal, professional, academic, and community library collections, "A Handbook of Bioethics Terms" is especially recommended to the attention of students in health care ethics, practicing physicians and nurses, involved and conscientious members of institutional ethics committees and review boards, as well as non-specialist general readers with an interest in bioethics relevant issues.
