Tristram\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe term `bioethics' was coined in 1971, just as interest in  the medical humanities claimed a prominent place in medical education.  Out of this interest, a substantial area of research and scholarship  took shape: the philosophy of medicine. This field has been directed  to the epistemological, ontological, and value-theoretical issues  occasioned by medicine and the biomedical sciences. Bioethics is  nested in this field and can only be fully understood in terms of the  foundational issues it addresses. This collection of essays in honor  of Stuart F. Spicker, one of the individuals who gave shape to the  philosophy of medicine, lays out the broad scope of concerns from the  philosophy of embodiment, to issues of the role of ethics consultants,  to concepts of disease, equity and the meaning of history.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-09\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048154197\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/0-306-47475-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 297cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 256\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481540784268,"sku":"9789048154197","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048154197.jpg?v=1779935331","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789048154197","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
