how human should responsibly view and interact with nature
Every day new questions arise from changes in health policy (e.g., the Affordable Care Act), advances in medical science, and the ongoing dilemma of the moral status of the vulnerable, animals, and the environment. With its initial publication in 1978, the Dartmouth Medal-winning Encyclopedia of Bioethics became the first reference work to focus on a then burgeoning field devoted to these questions, in effect helping to define the discipline. The set remains a recognized and trusted source four teachers, students, and those in related fields of health care, philosophy, environmentalism, law, political science, and religious studies. The fourth edition, now simply titled Bioethics, is more a curated collection of thought-provoking articles on current bioethical issues than merely a work of reference. It features 569 authoritative entries on 487 topics, many heavily revised, and includes more than 100 entirely new entries discussing the ethical implications of health care reform, climate change, and emerging reproductive and genetic technologies
