Summary
"This study is an imaginative coverage of multi-moral, ethical, and legal cultural differences and similarities for future use by students in the fields of biology, medicine, pharmacology, healthcare, and the biopharmaceutical industry. The similarities and differences in the various approaches to bioethics among nations lead us to an unavoidable conclusion: The moral dimensions of human existence cannot be captured by a single culture. It is the differentiations of multiculturalism."--BOOK JACKET.
