Progress in Bioethics

February 4, 2011

The present text, Progress in bioethics is part of the Basic bioethics series and is a compilation of papers relating to progressive bioethics in America. The collection of works, edited together by Jonathan Moreno and Sam Berger, are squarely rooted in recent American history and in several instances are framed by political debates over stem cell research and abortion. A central concern, certainly in the early part of the text, relates to what the authors believe is the strengthening hold that religious conservatism has within these discussions at the highest political level.
