What is bioethics?
Very long. So far, I'm through to section VIII.
EDIT: It's pretty scary, but it takes a while to realize what all is being talked about. There's some jargon and medical terminology, and lots and lots of names and dates that tend to blur together.
Just earlier today, before finding this link and reading this, I was pondering the actual ethics of in-vitro fertilization. It's a question that first came up in my mind with the debate over stem cells, specifically embryonic stem cells and obtaining them to do experiments in the first place.
I might post more at length later about the problems I saw cropping up in that context.
