Description:
London: Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1999. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Type: Book This volume explores Confucian views regarding the human body, health, virtue, suffering, suicide, euthanasia, "human drugs", human experimentation, and justice in health care distribution. These views are rooted in Confucian metaphysical, cosmological, and moral convictions, which stand in contrast to modern Western liberal perspectives in a number of important ways.

The essays in this volume analyse the ways in which Confucian bioethics can clarify important moral concepts, provide arguments, and offer ethical guidance.N.B.Small fade mark to base of d/j…
