Building Bioethics: Conversations with Clouser and Friends on Medical Ethics

K. Danner Clouser is one of the most important figures in establishing and shaping the fields of medical ethics, bioethics and the philosophy of education in the second half of the 20th century. Clouser challenged many established approaches to moral theory and offered innovative strategies for integrating the humanities into professional education, especially that of physicians and nurses. The contributions in this text contain a critical review of his contributions and bring together internationally known figures in bioethics, medical ethics and philosophy of medicine to comment upon Clouser's work.
