Biomedical technology and human rights

Nafisa J. Aptekar
Abstract:
This is a book about human rights, in relation to health issues and medical research, written by a doctor who has vast experience as a clinician, editor and international health consultant. Interestingly then, the author ventures into the grey areas of medicine - Should a physician practice euthanasia? Should he abandon the paternalistic attitude when dealing with a mentally ill patient? Should a mentally ill patient be sterilised?
