Challenging Cases in Clinical Research Ethics
Clinical research ethics consultation has emerged in the last 15 years as a service to those involved in the conduct of clinical research who face challenging issues for which more than one course of action may be justified.

Every year, the group selects the four most interesting cases with accompanying commentaries for publication in the American Journal of Bioethics. This timely book brings ...
Assigning Responsibility for Children’s Health When Parents and Authorities Disagree: Whose Child?
This book provides a multidisciplinary analysis of the potential conflict between a government’s duty to protect children and a parent(s)’ right to raise children in a manner they see fit. Using philosophical, bioethical, and legal analysis, the author engages with key scholars in pediatric decision-making and individual and religious rights theory. Going beyond the parent-child dyad, the author is deeply concerned both with the inteests of the broader society and with the appropriate limits of government interference in the private sphere. The text offers a balance of individual and population interests, maximizing liberty but safeguarding against harm. Bioethics and law professors will...
Living Better with Low Back Pain
Low back pain affects nearly everyone and has become an increasingly frustrating dilemma. People with back pain have been taken through a well-meaning, yet ineffective medical system and emerge no better, and in many cases worse. This does not have to be. We can do better. This book seeks to clarify the historical back pain enigma and dispel the myths around common diagnoses and treatments. The reader will gain insight into back pain and reassurance that there is a better way. Suggestions for patients and clinicians are given in a practical, simple way to improve care and their back pain. This book does not promise a miracle cure, but instead presents the most recent medical research in a clearly digestible manner. The reader will be reassured, entertained, and sent on their way to a healthier life, and a better back.
Applied Philosophy for Health Professions Education
This book increases the accessibility of philosophical concepts to a wider audience within medical education, translating ‘knowing’ to ‘doing.’ It prompts health professions educators and researchers to consider the dynamics and structure of contemporary issues within health professions education in new, philosophical ways. Through considering the practical implications of applying philosophical concepts to contemporary issues, the book recommends avenues for further research and pedagogical change. Individual educators are considered, with practice points for teaching generated within each chapter. Readers will acquire practical ways in which they can change their own practice or pedagogy that align with the new insight offered through our philosophical analysis. These practical recommendations may be systemic in nature, but the authors of this book also offer micro-level recommendations for practitioners that can be considered as ways to improve individual approaches to education and research.
