Military Medical Ethics for the 21st Century is the first full length, broad-based treatment of this important subject. Written by an international team of practitioners and academics.
'We face decades of complex conflict and advances in science and technology that could be applied to produce novel weapons. In that future, doctors, soldiers and scientists will face difficult ethical problems. Whilst concentrating on military medical issues, the diverse essays in this book demonstrate well the quality of analysis that will be required to help practitioners deal with such critical issues.' M.R. Dando, University of Bradford, UK 'Armed conflict is changing before our eyes and discussions of military medical ethics need to keep pace. The carefully selected items in this collection form the basis for an informed discussion of this exceedingly complex and rapidly developing field.' Jonathan Moreno, University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, USA
