Synopsis

This book is an edited collection of linked essays on the moral description, understanding, and evaluation of values within the regional (e.g. Europe, North America and Asia) and global setting in stem cell science. Themes include the potential value in finding and affirming common ethical norms; the possibility of compromise in reaching ethical consensus (or agreement) in stem cell science (this is a topic which concerns so-called procedural ethics, jurisprudence, and political philosophy in ethical debate); and the benefits, dangers and goals of assenting to a global/regional ethic. There is a focus on therapy and the translation of stem cell research into the clinic, and to give emphasis to the principles that can solve disagreement in biomedical issues within pluralistic settings.
